Opening the Heber Springs GIS map: start here
In most places the county maintains the parcel layer, and for Heber Springs that means the Cleburne County ArcGIS parcel map.
The viewer Cleburne County publishes
Property in and around Greers Ferry can be looked up on the Cleburne County ArcGIS parcel map, which opens without registering. Out toward Concord, type a street address, an owner's name or a parcel number, then pick the result to center the map on it. In and around Higden, write down the parcel ID before closing the panel; every office in the county asks for it first.
Who handles what
Deeds, mortgages and recorded plats for land near Greers Ferry are with the Circuit Clerk, sometimes only in person. Zoning, permits and septic questions near Greers Ferry are for the local planning and health departments, depending on whether the land is inside town limits.
Where Heber Springs fits in
The town lies around Higden, and the county assessor maps its lots. As the county seat, Heber Springs hosts the courthouse, so deeds and plats are filed in town. For a parcel near Quitman, the municipality handles things like zoning, permits and utilities within town limits, and the county still keeps the parcel and deed records. Acreage past the town limits near Greers Ferry often answers to county rules, not municipal ones.
Search tips
Acreage around Greers Ferry might not have a street number, so pan the aerial and click the lot. For a tract near Greers Ferry, a parcel ID is the most reliable search, and it's printed on tax bills.
Where the recorded documents are
Before you sign anything, request the recorded deed from the Circuit Clerk; the parcel map near Greers Ferry only summarizes it. If you're looking near Fairfield Bay, have ready the instrument number from the tax record to skip a name search.
Cleburne County in a few facts
Heber Springs serves as the county seat, where most land records are kept. Other places on the map include Greers Ferry, Higden, Quitman, and Concord. Around 25,445 people live in Cleburne County (Census Bureau estimate, 2023) spread over roughly 554 square miles. Cleburne County was organized in 1883, so old deeds can run back a long way.
When a parcel crosses a boundary
Cleburne County borders Faulkner County, Independence County, Stone County, Van Buren County, and White County; every one of them runs a separate parcel map.

On site with the map
The parcel map usually runs in a mobile browser, useful out on a road near Higden, so load it before you lose signal. A screenshot of the parcel near Greers Ferry with its ID is a good backup.
Layers worth turning on
For property near Concord, layer lists often include zoning, flood zones, city limits, school districts or contours; not every viewer has them all.
Before you lean on the lines
The acreage figure is an estimate; just a licensed surveyor establishes the real corners on land around Concord. For a home near Fairfield Bay, records update in batches, so a deed recorded last month can take weeks to appear.
Owner, value and acreage
A parcel card near Fairfield Bay normally gives owner and value fields plus the parcel number.

A standard section is about one square mile, roughly 640 acres, and a township holds 36 of them, though real sections near Fairfield Bay vary in size. Keep the legal description for land near Higden before you request a deed or survey.
When the map won't load

Keeping a record
