Logan County Colorado Property Records Navigator
Search Logan County Assessor Records, Parcel Values, Sales, GIS and Property Taxes
Logan County property research starts with the Assessor’s combined parcel, sales and tax-record system. It can search current owners, street locations, parcel numbers, subdivisions, neighborhoods, tax districts, property uses, zoning codes, acreage, building size and recorded sales. The Assessor values the property, but Treasurer Patricia “Patty” Bartlett separately collects the tax bill and Clerk & Recorder Pamela Bacon maintains deeds, liens, plats and other recorded documents.
The 2026 tax cycle also has an important Colorado-specific change: residential property taxes payable in 2026 use two different assessment rates—one for school-district levies and another for other local governments. This guide explains that change, shows how to search the correct parcel, separates 2025 taxes payable in 2026 from the separate 2026 assessment year, and gives the next steps for overdue taxes, valuation review, exemptions, deeds and the November 2026 tax-lien sale.

Editorial review
August 7, 2026
The most important Colorado tax-year distinction
2025 Taxes Payable in 2026 vs the 2026 Assessment Year
2025
Tax Year → Payable in 2026
The Treasurer mailed these statements in January 2026. The regular half-payment and full-payment deadlines have already passed.
This is the tax cycle using the new dual residential assessment rates discussed below.
2026
Assessment Year → Generally Billed in 2027
The Assessor values property for the 2026 assessment year. This is a separate cycle from the tax statement you paid—or should have paid—in 2026.
Do not confuse a 2026 Notice of Valuation with the 2025 tax bill payable in 2026.
As of August 7, 2026: the regular 2025-tax payment deadlines have passed. An unpaid balance may now carry delinquent interest, so use the live Treasurer tax search rather than calculating the payoff from the January statement.
Current 2026 property-tax position
What Logan County Property Owners Should Know Right Now
Tax statements mailed
Logan County says 2025 tax statements payable in 2026 were mailed January 23, 2026.
Regular deadlines passed
First half was listed for February 28, full payment for April 30 and second half for June 15.
2026 value review period passed
Colorado’s ordinary 2026 real-property protest calendar has already closed for the current assessment year.
Next major delinquent-tax event
Logan County’s 2026 tax-lien sale is scheduled for November 19, 2026.
Assessment-rate change explains why the statement looks different: Logan County removed a single residential “assessed value” from the tax statement because different assessment rates now apply to school and non-school taxes.
Postal warning: Logan County specifically highlights current USPS postmark rules and advises taxpayers who need a postmark matching the date of mailing to request a manual local postmark at a Post Office.

Assessor vs Treasurer vs Clerk & Recorder
County Assessor
- Parcel and owner records
- Actual property value
- Property classification
- Residential and commercial characteristics
- Agricultural property valuation
- Sales records
- GIS and tax-district mapping
- Value protests and exemptions
County Treasurer

Simple routing rule: Value or parcel information belongs with Assessor Peggy Michaels. Amount due or tax payment belongs with Treasurer Patty Bartlett. Deed, lien, plat or recording research belongs with Clerk & Recorder Pamela Bacon.
Colorado terminology differs from Florida: Colorado uses a County Assessor and Treasurer rather than a Property Appraiser and Tax Collector. If you are comparing county systems, this
Volusia County Property Appraiser guide shows how the Florida structure differs.

Official Logan County records system
How to Search Logan County Colorado Property Records
The county’s public records system combines Assessor parcel data, sales research and Treasurer tax-account searching in one interface.
Choose Quick Search or Parcel and Sales Search.
Quick Search is useful for a straightforward address or owner lookup; the advanced interface provides much deeper filtering.
Start with owner or street information.
Use the owner name or property location when you do not already know the parcel number.
Use parcel number for the cleanest match.
Parcel Number Contains and Parcel Number Range are available in the advanced search.
Open the matching parcel.
Confirm owner, site address, property ID, parcel information and property use.
Review structural and land details.
Check acreage, residential or commercial square footage, original construction year and other available characteristics.
Review sales information.
Compare last-sale date and price with the detailed sales-search tools.
Check tax district.
The district controls which local levies apply and is essential when comparing tax bills between properties.
Save the parcel or account number.
Reuse it for tax records, GIS, Assessor questions and deed research.
One useful advantage: Logan County’s current system lets you move from parcel search to sales research and tax records without switching among unrelated third-party databases.
High-value search filters
What You Can Search Beyond an Owner Name or Address
Subdivision
Filter properties by subdivision rather than individual street address.
Neighborhood
Useful when researching comparable property within a valuation area.
Section / Township / Range
Important for rural and agricultural parcels in eastern Colorado.
Tax District
Find properties sharing a particular tax-district configuration.
Property Use
Narrow results by residential, commercial, agricultural or other use categories.
Zone
Search the Assessor dataset by listed zone, then verify legal zoning separately.
Square Footage
Filter commercial or residential building size by range.
Acreage
Useful for farms, ranches and rural residential tracts.
Construction Year
Search properties within an original construction-year range.
Sales-search filters: Logan County also lets you search seller, buyer, sale-price range, sale-date range, vacant versus improved property, reception number and instrument type.

Major Colorado change for 2025 taxes payable in 2026
Why Logan County Residential Property Now Uses Two Assessment Rates
For the 2025 property tax year payable in 2026, Logan County explains that Colorado law created two residential assessment rates. Because one property can now have different assessed-value calculations for different levies, the Treasurer removed a single assessed-value number from the tax statement.
7.05%
School District Taxes
Residential actual value is multiplied by 7.05% when calculating the assessed value used for school-district taxes for the 2025 tax year payable in 2026.
6.25%
Other Local Government Taxes
Residential actual value is multiplied by 6.25% for applicable non-school local-government taxes for this same payable-2026 cycle.
Do not calculate one assessed value and apply every mill levy to it: that shortcut can be wrong for 2025 residential taxes payable in 2026 because the school and non-school portions use different assessment rates.
This is why the statement changed: Logan County says removing a single assessed-value figure avoids implying that one number applies to every taxing authority.
2026 is an intervening assessment year
How Colorado’s 2026 Property Valuation Cycle Works
June 30, 2024 Value Level
Colorado’s 2025–2026 appraisal cycle uses a June 30, 2024 statutory level of value for real property.
January 1, 2026 Assessment Date
Property characteristics and taxable status are considered for the 2026 assessment year.
2026 Value / Classification Review
Owners had the statutory protest process for current-year value or classification issues.
Tax Bill in 2027
The 2026 assessment generally becomes the base for property taxes billed the following year.
Sales-date limitation: Colorado’s 2025 and 2026 real-property valuations use the statutory June 30, 2024 level of value. Sales occurring after that appraisal date are not simply substituted into the 2026 valuation analysis as if the appraisal date were 2026.
2026 ordinary appeal window has passed
How Logan County Property Value Appeals Work
Review Assessor data
Check actual value, classification and physical characteristics.
File Assessor protest
Start the statutory appeal at the county Assessor level.
County Board
Continue to the County Board of Equalization when eligible.
Further appeal
Eligible decisions can proceed to the Board of Assessment Appeals, district court or arbitration.
August 2026 status: Colorado’s standard 2026 real-property protest period has already ended. The statewide 2026 calendar used an early-May through June 8 window for the ordinary process. Contact Logan County Assessor at
970-522-2797 if you missed the deadline or have a later correction issue.
Evidence worth organizing before contacting the Assessor
- Current Logan County property record
- Notice of Valuation when applicable
- Incorrect square footage or acreage evidence
- Property-condition photographs
- Comparable sales from the statutory appraisal period
- Construction or demolition documentation
- Correct property-use/classification evidence
- Recorded deed or survey information when relevant
Appeal sequence matters: Colorado Judicial Branch guidance says owners generally must first protest with the County Assessor and then appeal to the County Board of Equalization before pursuing the later appeal options.
Colorado statewide property-tax relief
Senior and Veteran-with-a-Disability Property Tax Exemptions
PROPERTY
TAX
RELIEF
SENIOR 65+
VETERAN WITH DISABILITY
SURVIVING SPOUSE
PRIMARY RESIDENCE
Senior Citizen Exemption
Colorado generally exempts 50% of the first $200,000 of actual value for a qualifying senior primary residence. Standard qualification historically includes age 65 and long-term ownership/occupancy requirements, with special 2025–2026 rules for certain previously qualified seniors who moved.
Veteran with a Disability
Colorado provides a similar exemption for qualifying veterans with the required service-connected disability status and qualifying primary-residence ownership/occupancy.
Logan County’s Assessor page still links older downloadable form versions: use those only as background. Contact the Assessor for the current 2026 form or state instructions before submitting a new application.
Veteran filing timing: current Colorado materials use a July 1 application deadline for the veteran-with-a-disability exemption. As of August 7, that ordinary 2026 date has passed.
Check Logan County Exemption Forms
Review the Assessor’s current document list and call 970-522-2797 before using an older downloaded form.
Deferral is different from an exemption
Colorado Property Tax Deferral for Logan County Homeowners
Logan County Treasurer participates in Colorado’s property-tax deferral program. A deferral is a state-backed loan arrangement that postpones eligible tax payment—it does not erase the tax in the way an exemption can reduce taxable value.
Senior homeowners
Logan County says eligible homeowners age 65 and older may qualify.
Active military
Eligible active-duty military service members may also qualify.
2026 filing period
Treasurer accepted applications January 1 through April 1, 2026.
2026 application window has passed: Do not confuse the deferral application deadline with property-tax payment due dates or the Senior Property Tax Exemption program.

Already reflected in 2025 taxes payable in 2026
Temporary Tax Credits on Logan County 2026 Statements
Logan County states that several taxing authorities elected temporary tax credits under Colorado SB 23-108 for the 2025 taxes payable in 2026. The Treasurer says the amount due on applicable statements already reflects these credits.
| Taxing authority |
Published temporary tax credit |

| Logan County General Fund |

Do not subtract these numbers again: the Treasurer says the tax amount due already reflects the applicable temporary tax credit.

Delinquent Logan County Property Taxes and the 2026 Tax-Lien Sale
Delinquent interest
Logan County adds delinquent interest when a payment is postmarked after the applicable deadline.
Annual tax-lien sale
The 2026 sale is scheduled for November 19 at the Logan County Courthouse in Sterling.
Tax lien is not immediate loss of property
Colorado has statutory redemption and later Treasurer’s Deed procedures; a tax-lien sale itself is not the same as the county instantly transferring ownership of the home.
If the property is already delinquent, contact the Treasurer now: 970-522-2462. Waiting for the November tax-lien sale generally makes the problem more complicated rather than easier.
Public Trustee is also in the Treasurer’s office: mortgage foreclosure and property-tax lien processes are separate. Logan County Treasurer also serves as Public Trustee, but a lender foreclosure should not be confused with a county tax-lien sale.

Logan County Property Assessor 2026 FAQs
1. How do I search Logan County Colorado property records?
Use the official Logan County Assessor Records Search at loganco-search.gsacorp.io. The system supports parcel and sales searches using owner name, street location, parcel number, subdivision, neighborhood, section-township-range, tax district, property use, zone, building square footage, acreage and construction year.
2. Who is the Logan County Colorado Assessor in 2026?
Peggy Michaels is the Logan County Assessor. The Assessor’s Office is at 315 Main Street, Suite 1, Sterling, Colorado 80751. The main phone number is 970-522-2797 and office hours are Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
3. Why are there two residential assessment rates on Logan County property taxes in 2026?
Beginning with the 2025 property tax year payable in 2026, Colorado created different residential assessment rates for different levies. Logan County publishes a 7.05% residential assessment rate for school-district taxes and a 6.25% residential assessment rate for other local-government taxes. Because one assessed value no longer applies to the entire tax bill, the Treasurer removed a single assessed-value figure from residential tax statements.
4. When were Logan County property taxes due in 2026?
For 2025 taxes payable in 2026, Logan County published February 28 as the first-half date, April 30 as the full-payment deadline and June 15 as the second-half deadline. As of August 7, 2026, the regular deadlines have passed and unpaid balances may include delinquent interest.
5. Are 2026 Logan County assessments the same as taxes paid in 2026?
No. Property taxes paid during 2026 generally relate to the 2025 tax year. The 2026 assessment year is a separate valuation cycle and generally becomes part of the property tax calculation billed in 2027. This distinction is important when reading a Notice of Valuation and a Treasurer tax statement.
6. How do I appeal a Logan County property value?
Colorado property-value appeals begin with the County Assessor. If the dispute is not resolved, eligible appeals can continue to the County Board of Equalization and then to the Colorado Board of Assessment Appeals, district court or arbitration. The ordinary 2026 real-property protest period has already passed, so contact Logan County Assessor at 970-522-2797 for the options that remain for a current issue.
7. Does Logan County offer a senior property tax exemption?
Qualifying Logan County homeowners can use Colorado’s Senior Property Tax Exemption. The statewide program generally exempts 50% of the first $200,000 of actual value for a qualifying primary residence. Age, ownership, occupancy and other statutory requirements apply, and special rules affect some homeowners who previously qualified and later moved.
8. Can I make partial Logan County property tax payments?
No. Logan County Treasurer currently states that only half payments or one full payment are accepted and that ordinary partial payments are not accepted. If taxes are delinquent, contact the Treasurer for the current balance and accepted payment options.
9. Where do I search Logan County deeds and liens?
Use the Logan County Clerk & Recorder Online Documents system. The county’s instructions allow Advanced Search by person name, business name, reception number and book/page. Watermarked research copies can be printed free online, while unwatermarked or official copies can be purchased.
10. When is the Logan County Colorado 2026 tax-lien sale?
Logan County has scheduled its 2026 annual tax-lien sale for November 19, 2026 at the Logan County Courthouse, 315 Main Street in Sterling. Registration begins through the Treasurer’s Office and the sale is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. Property owners with delinquent taxes should contact the Treasurer before the sale rather than waiting for the auction date.
