Question

property taxes


What is the name of your state? Alabama
Is there any online way that I can check to see if the property taxes where I live have been paid ? They should have been paid by December 31. I just want to see if they were paid hopefully without a trip to the courthouse.

This information is kept on a county by county basis. Check to see what information your county assessor or treasurer has online. I doubt that you will find this, but you can try. Also, you'd be amazed what you can accomplish with a phone call.

Lots of county assessors maintain a searchable database online where you can look up properties by address of parcel number. Many will let you see if taxes have been paid.

Some county collectors will even tell you over the phone.

Others are very rude.
