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.

Many parcel sites expect owner names last name first. If a full name finds nothing, try just the surname.

A note on accuracy

The lines you see online are approximate. They're good for finding a lot and its parcel number, but a legal boundary question needs the recorded plat or a surveyor.
