Find a property owner in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania
Allegheny County takes in Pittsburgh and the surrounding area. In Pennsylvania, deeds are recorded by the county recorder of deeds, and property is assessed by the county assessment office. Those offices give you the owner of record and mailing address one parcel at a time; for a whole list, an owner-data tool returns owners, phones (DNC flagged) and emails in one pass.
What's on a Allegheny County property record
- The recorded owner name (person or LLC)
- The mailing address (often different from the property location for absentee owners)
- Assessed value and tax history
- Property characteristics (lot size, year built where applicable, square footage)
- A link to the recorded deed in most counties
Working Allegheny County records
Official sources used for Pittsburgh addresses:
- Allegheny County Office of Property Assessments — Owner of record, assessment and sale data (search from the county's website).
- Allegheny County Department of Real Estate — Recorded deeds and mortgages for the county.
Allegheny County has 130 municipalities, so a 'Pittsburgh' mailing address often belongs to a separate borough or township with its own tax collector. The county assessment office still covers all of them.
For a farm or expired list, pull the parcel numbers first. Parcel IDs stay stable when an address is written differently, so they make cleaner matches than street addresses.
