Where the records are

The county offices an investor deals with in Tarrant County, and what each one puts online.

Deeds and mortgages

Tarrant County Clerk, Real Estate Records. Real property records, including foreclosure notices, can be searched online by name, document number or full text at tarrant.tx.publicsearch.us, and copies can also be printed at courthouse kiosks for $1 per page.

Owners and values

Tarrant Appraisal District (TAD). Owner, value and property details can be searched free in TAD's property search, and TAD also offers interactive maps and data downloads.

Tax sales

Tarrant County Tax Assessor-Collector and Constable Precinct 3. Delinquent tax sale lists are posted on the Tax Office website, and tax accounts can be searched free on the Tax Office's property tax account search.

Foreclosure sales

Tarrant County Clerk (Notices of Substitute Trustee Sale). Foreclosure notices can be viewed 24 hours a day in the County Clerk's online Official Records Search, but each month's notices are removed the day after the sale and are not indexed.

Parcel maps

Tarrant County GIS Public Map Viewer. The free county map viewer lets you search property by address, account number or owner and links to the Tarrant Appraisal District.

How property is sold here

Tarrant County follows Texas's rules, with its own calendar and offices. Read the Texas guide for how the state works.

Tax sales

Texas does not sell tax liens; Tarrant County sells the property itself after a tax lawsuit and order of sale. Delinquent tax sales are held by Constable Precinct 3 on the first Tuesday of each month starting at 10:00 AM on the steps of the 1895 Tarrant County Courthouse at 100 W. Weatherford St. in Fort Worth. Bidders must register and bid in person and pay in cash, cashier's check or money order, and sale notices are published in the Fort Worth Commercial Recorder once a week for three weeks before the sale and listed on the Tax Office website.

Foreclosure sales

Mortgage foreclosures in Tarrant County are substitute trustee sales held on the first Tuesday of every month at the base of the courthouse steps on the west side of 100 W. Weatherford St. in downtown Fort Worth. Notices must be posted 21 days before the sale and can be viewed in the County Clerk's online Official Records Search, on public terminals in Rooms B-20 and B-30, and on a bulletin board in the Old Courthouse basement.

Assessed values

Under its 2027-2028 reappraisal plan, the Tarrant Appraisal District reappraises residential property only in odd-numbered years starting in 2027 and reappraises all other property every year, with values set as of January 1.

Transfer tax

Texas has no real estate transfer tax, so there is no state, county or city tax on deeds in Fort Worth or Arlington; buyers pay only County Clerk recording fees of $20 for the first page and $4 for each added page.

Worth knowing

Properties that get no bid at the tax sale are struck off to the taxing units, and the City of Fort Worth sells many of these tax-foreclosed properties as trustee through sealed-bid sales advertised at least four weeks ahead, or by direct sale in a few cases.

Worth knowing

Bidders at Tarrant County tax sales may not bid for someone else; the Constable issues a Constable's Deed only in the name of the person who won the bid.

Worth knowing

The County Clerk does not publish a list of mortgage foreclosures, and each month's notices are destroyed the day after the sale.
