About the official source

It is a county-level map: Cass County or the company it hires keeps the parcel layer up to date. Our October 2026 check found the map open to the public, with no account or payment needed.

Searching for a parcel, step by step

  1. Open the link to the Beacon site from Schneider Geospatial. If a terms or disclaimer window appears, agree to it to continue.
  2. Use the search bar to look up a street address, an owner's name or a parcel ID. Beacon sites usually also have a dedicated property search page.
  3. Click a lot on the map and then open its report for assessment and property details.
  4. Use the layer and basemap controls to add aerial photos or other layers the county publishes.

Have a tax bill handy? The parcel or account number on it is usually the fastest way to search.

Before you rely on the lines

Keep in mind that a GIS parcel layer is a tax map, not a survey. For exact boundaries, look at the recorded deed and plat or hire a licensed land surveyor.
