Laramie County Property Assessor 2026: Search & Tax Records

Laramie County Wyoming Property Search • 2026

Search Laramie County Property by Owner, Address or Parcel & Check 2026 Taxes

The official Laramie County assessor property search starts with the county’s Parcel Viewer, a Cheyenne–Laramie County Cooperative GIS system that supports searches by owner name, street address or parcel number. Use it to identify the correct parcel and understand its map location before moving into tax or recorded-document research.

For 2026, the county mailed its Notice of Assessment on April 15. The regular 30-day valuation objection period has therefore passed, but the 2026 tax-payment cycle has not started yet: the Treasurer normally mails annual tax bills on the last business day of August.

Assessment Appeals Are Closed, but the 2026 Tax Bill Has Not Been Mailed Yet

Assessment: Laramie County mailed 2026 Notices of Assessment on April 15. Wyoming gives property owners 30 days from the mail date to submit a written objection, so the ordinary 2026 appeal period expired in May.
Taxes: the Treasurer mails current-year property-tax notices on the last business day in August. If the notice has not arrived by the second week of September, the county advises contacting the Treasurer for a copy.
Next 2026 action: verify your parcel and mailing address now. After the annual tax roll reaches the Treasurer in August, check the live iTax account and compare the bill with the assessment notice.
The July 30, 2026 annual tax sale has already occurred. Laramie County’s tax sale sells the county’s tax lien, not the real estate itself. Do not describe the annual lien sale as an immediate county auction of the property.

Three Ways to Search Laramie County Tax Records

Parcel Number Best choice when the Assessor/GIS parcel ID is already known.
Owner Name iTax shows the recommended format as LastName, FirstName.
Property Address The iTax form separates street number, street name and city.
Open Laramie County iTax Search using one criterion at a time, confirm the correct parcel, then review the current tax account before paying.

Field What it means What to verify next
Owner Owner carried in the assessment system. Recorded deed controls legal title research.
Parcel Number Identifier used to connect the GIS and tax account. Save before moving between county systems.
Fair Market Value Assessor’s estimate of what the property would sell for under normal market conditions. Review January 1 valuation date.
Assessed Value Market value multiplied by Wyoming’s statutory level of assessment. For most real property this is 9.5% of market value.
Mill Levy Dollars of property tax per $1,000 of assessed value. Use the parcel’s actual tax district.
Property Characteristics Size, construction, finished area, outbuildings and other appraisal details. Incorrect characteristics can affect market value.
Legal Description Land description used to identify the recorded property. Required for stronger deed-record research.
Estimated Tax Assessment notices may estimate taxes using available levy information. Treasurer’s annual bill is the collection record.

How Laramie County Converts Market Value into Assessed Value

9.5% — Most Property Residential, commercial, agricultural and most other non-industrial property is assessed at 9.5% of fair market or applicable taxable value.
11.5% — Industrial Wyoming’s current assessment level for industrial-use property is 11.5%.
100% — Minerals Mineral property is assessed at 100% under the county’s current published assessment guidance.
Residential example: $400,000 market value × 9.5% = $38,000 assessed value before eligible exemptions. The applicable mill levy is then applied to the taxable assessed value.
There is no safe single Laramie County tax rate. Tax districts can include the county, city, school district, fire district, water/sewer district and other taxing entities.
2026 ordinary filing period has passed

Laramie County 2026 Property Assessment Appeal

Valuation Date Property is listed, valued and assessed as of January 1.
2026 Notice Laramie County mailed 2026 Notices of Assessment.
Objection Window Written objection was required within 30 days of mailing.
Board Hearings Formal Board of Equalization hearings are generally scheduled around June.
Decision Deadline Board findings and further appeal information are provided in writing no later than October 1.
August 2026 status: the normal 30-day appeal window tied to the April 15 notice is closed. Do not present a new August appeal period. If the record contains a factual error, contact the Assessor and ask whether a correction remains available.
Review the Property Record Card. Check square footage, construction, finished area, outbuildings and other characteristics.
State the specific value you believe is correct. The county says statements such as “too high” or “wrong” are not enough.
Provide useful valuation evidence. Examples include appraisals, market analysis and special conditions affecting the property.
Use the formal appeal route when timely. Official appeal forms are available from the Assessor for County Board of Equalization proceedings.
Wyoming sales information used by the Assessor is confidential. During a timely appeal period, an owner may review relevant sales, but the county warns that those confidential sale details cannot be freely redistributed.
Official Property Review & Appeal Read the county’s evidence rules, review process and formal appeal procedure.

First Half Payable Last day to pay first installment without interest.
Second Half Due Remaining 50% is due March 1, 2027.

Uses a 9.5% assessment ratio for most residential/commercial real property.

Formula: (Market Value − qualifying market-value exemption) × 9.5% = assessed value; subtract qualifying assessed-value exemption; then multiply taxable assessed value × Mill Levy ÷ 1,000.
The calculator is educational. Industrial, mineral, agricultural, exemption and district-specific treatment can require a different calculation.
GIS is excellent for research, not legal boundaries

Laramie County Parcel Viewer & Interactive Maps

Parcel Viewer Search by owner name, address or parcel number. County GIS / Maps Access Laramie County map resources and interactive mapping information.
Cooperative GIS The parcel system is operated through the Cheyenne–Laramie County Cooperative GIS program.
GIS boundaries are not a survey. The map provider states the data is provided for display purposes and makes no warranty as to validity. Exact boundary, easement and encroachment questions require recorded documents and, when needed, a professional survey.
Legal description is the key

How to Find Laramie County Deeds, Mortgages & Liens

The County Clerk’s Real Estate/Recording Division records deeds, mortgages, releases, covenants, plats, surveys and real-estate liens. The Clerk specifically warns that property-record research should use the property’s legal description, not only the physical address.

Find the parcel in Parcel Viewer. Save the owner name, parcel number and legal-description information.
Open Real Estate/Recordings. Use Laramie County Clerk Real Estate/Recordings.
Choose the correct historical period. ArcaSearch covers the historical archive from 1868 through October 24, 1985.
Use iDoc Market for newer documents. The county identifies iDoc Market for records from October 25, 1985 to current.
Research for free in the Clerk’s office when preferred. Public recorded documents can be researched and viewed at the Real Estate-Recording office without charge; copies have separate fees.
Current recording-copy fees: electronic copies are $1 per page, printed copies are $0.50 per page, and certification is $5 plus applicable copy charges.

Free Laramie County Document Alert

The County Clerk offers a free email alert designed to help property owners notice potentially unauthorized recordings. The system examines newly recorded documents and corrections for matches to criteria such as a person’s name or property legal description.

Create Account Set up an account through the Clerk’s linked iDoc Market service.
Choose Document Alerts Add name variations and property information you want monitored.
Investigate Matches Alerts can involve deeds, mortgages, liens, trusts and powers of attorney.
Open Official Document Alert Instructions Follow the Clerk’s current setup directions for the voluntary free alert.
2026 sale was July 30

Laramie County Tax Sale Does Not Immediately Sell the House

Tax Lien Sale The Treasurer sells the county’s lien for delinquent taxes, interest and sale costs.
15% Purchaser Interest Wyoming law provides tax-lien purchasers 15% annual interest plus a 3% penalty on the day of purchase.
Tax Deed Later An unredeemed lien can potentially move toward a tax-deed application after four years if statutory notice requirements are met.
The 2026 Laramie County tax sale was held July 30. This is different from a mortgage foreclosure sale and should not be confused with an immediate transfer of title to the tax-lien purchaser.

County Property Search, Homestead & Tax Help Toolkit

Use this free helper to find the right county office, prepare a property search, understand appraised value, review homestead exemption steps, and organize TRIM notice or tax bill questions before using official county websites.

Built for Florida county property guides
Helps users find official resources
No fake database or approval claim
Useful after every article

Find the Correct County Office

Property Appraiser, Tax Collector, Clerk, GIS, and VAB offices do different jobs. Pick your task below.

Quick rule: Property Appraiser = value, records, parcel details, exemptions. Tax Collector = bill and payment. Clerk/Recorder = deeds and recorded documents. VAB = formal value disputes.

Official Property Search Helper

Use this when a county article tells you to search by owner, address, parcel number, folio, PCN, STRAP, or alternate key.

Search tip: If address search fails, try only the house number and main street name. Avoid typing Street, Avenue, Road, Drive, unit numbers, or punctuation unless the official portal requires it.

Homestead Exemption Readiness Check

This helps homeowners prepare before filing through the official county Property Appraiser website.

Important: This is not an eligibility decision. The official county Property Appraiser decides approval, required documents, late filing options, and exemption status.

TRIM Notice & Value Review Helper

Use this to organize your questions before calling the Property Appraiser or preparing an appeal.

Your preparation checklist

Value term Simple meaning
Market value The appraiser’s estimate of the property’s value as of the assessment date.
Assessed value The value after limits or caps may be applied.
Exemptions Approved reductions such as homestead or other exemptions.
Taxable value The value used by taxing authorities after exemptions.

Property Tax Bill Direction Helper

The Property Appraiser values property, but the Tax Collector usually handles the actual bill and payment.

Florida timing reminder: Many Florida tax bills are mailed around November and become delinquent if unpaid after March 31. Always verify exact dates, discounts, and payment fees with the official county Tax Collector.
