Search Coos County Parcels, Values & Deeds
Use Coos County’s official property tools to locate an assessment account, check ownership and situs information, compare Real Market Value (RMV), Maximum Assessed Value (MAV) and Assessed Value (AV), inspect the map and tax lot, review property taxes and trace recorded deeds.
The important part is knowing which county system to use after you find the parcel. This guide separates assessment records from tax payments, GIS parcel maps, deed records, zoning questions and value appeals—and shows what to click, record and verify at each step.
Quick answer: use the Assessor Account Search first
For a normal Coos County property lookup, start with the official Assessor Account Search. Find the matching account, record the account number and Map & Taxlot ID, then use the value fields for assessment questions, ArcGIS for parcel context, the Tax Office for balances/payments and the County Clerk’s Digital Research Room for deeds and other recorded title documents.

How to search a Coos County assessment account
The official Assessor page sends property users to Property Search Online. Use it as the starting record for ownership, valuation and account identification. Then move to another system only when your task requires tax-payment history, legal documents or land-use information.
If Property Search Online gives no useful result
RMV, MAV and AV are not the same number
Oregon’s property-tax system does not use an Ohio-style fixed assessment ratio. Coos County calculates the value fields under Oregon rules. The taxable assessed value is generally the lower of RMV and MAV, subject to special assessment rules where applicable.
A simple example
Hypothetical RMV: $420,000
Hypothetical MAV: $260,000
Taxable AV: $260,000 because it is the lower value in this example.
This example explains the relationship only. It is not a valuation of any Coos County parcel.
Field |
Meaning |
What can change it |
How to use it |
|---|---|---|---|
RMV |
Real Market Value—the Assessor’s estimate of market value as of the assessment date. |
Market data, property characteristics, new construction and other appraisal factors. |
Main value to analyze if you believe the county’s market-value estimate is wrong. |
MAV |
Maximum Assessed Value—the constitutional taxable-value limit. |
Generally limited in annual growth, but qualifying property events can cause additional increases. |
Compare with RMV to understand why taxable value may be lower than market value. |
AV |
Assessed Value used for taxation; generally the lower of RMV or MAV. |
Changes when the RMV/MAV relationship changes or applicable special-assessment rules apply. |
This is the key value used with applicable district tax rates. |
SAV / MSAV |
Specially assessed values that can apply to qualifying property. |
Program qualification and statutory special-assessment rules. |
Important for certain farm, forest and other specially assessed property. |
Dates that matter for a Coos County property record
Value evidence for a 2026 appeal should address the property’s condition/value as of this date.
Assessment year is underway; 2026–27 statements have not yet reached their normal October mailing stage.
Coos County says tax amounts and emailed statement copies become available around mid-October.
Nov. 15 falls on Sunday; Coos County extends a current-year weekend due date to the next working day.
Deadline to file a PVAB value appeal for the tax statement.
Date |
What happens |
What the owner should do |
|---|---|---|
January 1, 2026 |
Assessment date. |
Use evidence reflecting the property’s market condition on or near this date for valuation disputes. |
Mid-October 2026 |
Tax amounts/statement copies become available around this period. |
Check RMV, MAV, AV, account number, taxing districts and payment status. |
November 15 statutory date |
First installment ordinarily due. |
For 2026, Nov. 15 is Sunday, so the county’s weekend rule moves the practical due date to the next working day. |
December 31, 2026 |
PVAB petition deadline. |
Do not wait for a reappraisal discussion to run past the appeal deadline. |
February 15, 2027 |
Second statutory installment date. |
Check your printed/online statement for the effective payment date and office-holiday handling. |
May 15, 2027 |
Final statutory installment date. |
Because this date falls on a Saturday, use the county’s next-working-day rule and verify the statement before paying. |
Use the Tax Office after you identify the correct account
The assessment account explains the property and its value; the Tax Office handles tax amounts, payments, delinquency and tax statements. Coos County’s tax website warns that its online search data comes from the tax roll for informational use and is not itself the Tax Department’s certified official record.
Micro-steps to check or pay Coos County property tax
Start from the county Taxes page. Confirm account and tax year before submitting.
Coos County Tax Department, 250 N. Baxter Street, Coquille, OR 97423.
Tax Office is in the courthouse, second floor, Room 207. The county also lists a drop box to the right of the office door.
Use the map to locate a tax lot—not to prove a legal boundary
Coos County Cartography maintains property-account mapping, plat-map information and taxing-district geography. The official ArcGIS aerial map is especially useful when a rural address is difficult to search or when you need visual parcel context.
How to use the official ArcGIS map
Coos County has a useful Sales Comp Finder that generic directories miss
If your real intent is to judge whether an assessment looks reasonable, a property-search page alone is not enough. Coos County publishes a GIS-based Sales Comp Finder that can help you identify recorded sales for comparison.
Assessment ownership is not a substitute for the recorded deed
The Assessor maintains ownership information for assessment administration, but the Coos County Clerk records documents affecting title to real property. When you need the deed, mortgage, release or another recorded instrument, move from the assessment account to the Clerk’s Digital Research Room.

Set a same-day alert for newly recorded documents
Coos County’s County Clerk offers the Property Recording Alert Service (PRAS) at no charge. It can email you when a new document is recorded under a name you monitor and includes a direct link to the recorded document.
The county currently charges no fee for PRAS enrollment.
Coos County says notices are sent the same day a matching document is recorded.
An alert contains a direct link so you can determine whether the filing actually concerns your property.
Question the assessment before paying $35 to file a PVAB petition
Coos County recommends beginning with the Assessor. Staff can explain the valuation, and the county offers a free Request for Reappraisal/Appraisal Review. If the disagreement remains, a property owner or person with an interest in the property can petition the Property Value Appeals Board.

More appropriate for title-chain research than relying only on the owner name displayed in the assessment account. |
Why Oregon property searches may not use an “Auditor” office
County office titles differ across the United States. In Coos County, the practical property-record route is the Assessor → Tax Office → County Clerk workflow rather than a single county-auditor property database.
If you are comparing this workflow with another state or county, use our live county-office directory to identify which local office performs assessment, taxation or recording functions before following a generic “auditor search” instruction.
Coos County tax assessment and records FAQs
How do I search Coos County, Oregon property assessments online?
Open the official Coos County Assessor Property Search Online system. Search the correct parcel, then save the account number and Map & Taxlot ID. Use the property record to review ownership information, parcel details and RMV/MAV/AV. The portal requires JavaScript.
Why does the Coos County property search say JavaScript is required?
The official Property Search Online application depends on JavaScript. Enable JavaScript in your browser and refresh the page. If it still fails, try a current browser and use the Assessor page or ArcGIS map as an alternate starting point before calling 541-396-7900.
What is the difference between RMV, MAV and AV in Coos County?
RMV is Real Market Value, MAV is Maximum Assessed Value, and AV is Assessed Value. Under Oregon’s system, taxable assessed value is generally the lower of RMV and MAV, subject to applicable special-assessment rules. A property’s RMV therefore is not automatically the number on which its taxes are calculated.
When are Coos County property taxes due?
The county lists statutory installment dates of November 15, February 15 and May 15. For current-year taxes, Coos County states that when a due date falls on a weekend it moves to the next working day. The county also accepts postmark as the payment date.
How do I find a Coos County Map & Taxlot number?
Start with Property Search Online or the official Assessor ArcGIS aerial map. Locate the correct account/parcel and save the Map & Taxlot identifier. It is useful for appraisal questions, GIS research, appeals and connecting property information across county systems.
Are Coos County GIS parcel lines the legal property boundaries?
No. Coos County Cartography explicitly warns that ArcGIS parcel lines are for assessment purposes only and may not align with legal property lines shown by deeds, plats or surveys. Do not use the GIS outline alone to settle a fence, construction or boundary dispute.
Where can I search Coos County deeds and recorded land records?
Use the Coos County Clerk’s Digital Research Room. Search using owner/party names, recording information or a deed reference gathered from property research. Coos County notes that pre-1990 documents are still being indexed for electronic retrieval, so an older record may require additional Clerk assistance.
How do I appeal a Coos County property assessment?
First call the Assessor at 541-396-7900 and ask about the value and the free appraisal-review process. If the dispute remains, an eligible property owner or interested party can file a PVAB petition with the County Clerk by December 31. Coos County currently lists a $35 filing fee for each account/petition.
Can I find comparable property sales through Coos County?
Yes. The Assessor provides a Sales Comp Finder map. Coos County’s instructions say the tool labeled Residential Comp Finder can work for other properties as well: enter a sales-price range and beginning/ending sale years, click Apply, then inspect highlighted transactions and their property details.
How can I get alerts when a deed or other document is recorded under my name?
Use the Coos County Clerk’s free Property Recording Alert Service (PRAS). It sends same-day email alerts when a new recorded document matches a monitored name and provides a link to the document. An alert should still be reviewed because a same-name filing may relate to another person.

10 Ohio Property Tax Calculators & Auditor Tools
Built specifically for Ohio's 35% assessment ratio, current DTE forms, and 2026 Homestead, Owner-Occupancy, CAUV, Conveyance Fee, and Board of Revision rules. Every number reflects verified Ohio Department of Taxation amounts.
Annual Tax Bill Estimator

Owner-Occupancy & Non-Business Credits
DTE 105CEvery Ohio owner-occupied home qualifies for the 2.5% Owner-Occupancy Credit plus the automatic 10% Non-Business Credit. Most owners don't realize these stack.
Conveyance Fee Calculator
ORC 322When you sell or transfer Ohio property, the auditor collects $1 state + up to $3 county per $1,000, plus $0.50 per parcel. Counties choose their rate.
CAUV Agricultural Savings
DTE 109Ohio's Current Agricultural Use Value cuts taxable value dramatically for farmland (10+ acres, or smaller with $2,500+ annual gross income).
Mill Rate Converter
Ohio tax rates appear three ways on auditor sites: mills, percent, or dollars per $1,000. Convert between them instantly.
Parcel Number Cleaner
Ohio's 88 counties each format parcels differently — Franklin uses 010-123456-00, Cuyahoga uses 001-23-456, Hamilton uses 100-0001-0001-00. Auto-detects.
35% Ratio Sanity Check
Ohio law sets taxable value at 35% of market value. If yours is significantly higher, you're a strong BOR appeal candidate.
BOR Appeal Savings
DTE 1A successful Board of Revision complaint typically cuts your value 10–20%. Filing is free and stays in effect until the next reappraisal.
BOR Deadline Countdown
MAR 31Ohio's statutory Board of Revision filing deadline is March 31 for the prior tax year. Miss it and you wait until next year — no extensions.
Verify with the official Ohio source
These calculators use the verified 2026 Ohio Department of Taxation amounts and statutory rules. For your exact bill, exemption status, and county-specific deadlines, always confirm with your county auditor and the Ohio Revised Code:
Estimates use Ohio's 35% statutory assessment ratio and effective tax rate tiers averaged across major Ohio counties. Your actual bill depends on local school levies, voted millage, inside vs. outside millage splits, House Bill 920 reduction factors (HB 920), and special assessments. The 2026 Homestead general amount ($29,000) and enhanced amount ($58,000) reflect HB 187 inflation indexing — your county auditor's office may show slightly different transitional figures.
