Public records belong to the public

Open records are how a democracy keeps track of who owns what and what's owed on it. Deeds, liens, tax bills and flood maps are public by law, but they're scattered across thousands of county offices, each with its own website. We gather them in one place, and every fact links to the office that keeps it, so you can always check it yourself, free.

Free for everyone

Search any address. See ownership, value, taxes, flood zone, hazards and how many liens and judgments we found, with links to the official records. No account, no card.

Premium saves you the legwork

Every lien, judgment and lis pendens we find, with document numbers and whether a release was recorded, on every report you run. $1 for the first 30 days, then $9.99/month; cancel anytime online.

A researcher when you need one

The documents themselves, records behind a county CAPTCHA, and city lien requests: a $49 service fee plus the government's own fees, itemized before you pay.

OnlineRecords.US is privately run and not a government website. The records are public: we charge only for the work of gathering them, never for access the government already gives you free.

What's in a free report

See a sample report (PDF): a Pinellas County condo, with the owner's details hidden.

Type an address and we pull the public records for that parcel into one page, with a link to the office that keeps each record.

Property & parcel

Parcel ID, land use, lot and living area, year built and the county's legal description.

Taxes & value

Just, assessed and taxable value and the latest tax bill where the county publishes it.

Sales history

Recorded sales with dates and prices from the property appraiser's file.

Flood zone

FEMA flood zone, map panel and elevation, so you know whether flood insurance is likely required.

Storms & hazards

Hurricane history, storm surge, sinkholes and other hazards near the property.

Records to check

Direct links to the clerk, tax collector and permit offices for deeds, liens and permits.

Premium option
