You may be entering too much data or incorrect data when searching for tax parcels through the Ascent Land Records web portal. For best results, do not enter data into all search categories. Tax ID numbers consist of a municipality code and a parcel number (11004-123) and cannot be used in the Parcel ID search. Use the Municipality dropdown and enter a parcel number (found after the 5 digit code in the Tax ID) to search by Parcel ID. Street Number and Street Name refer to the site address (not mailing address). Not all parcels will have a site address. When searching Street Name, do not enter the type of street (ex: Oak Street should be entered as Oak).
