Find a property owner in Dallas County, Texas
Dallas County takes in Dallas and the surrounding area. In Texas, deeds are recorded by the county clerk, and property is assessed by the county appraisal district. 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 Dallas 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 Dallas County records
Official sources used for Dallas addresses:
- Dallas Central Appraisal District (DCAD) — Owner of record, mailing address and appraised value for Dallas County parcels.
- Dallas County Clerk – recording — Recorded deeds and liens for Dallas County.
- Collin Central Appraisal District — For the far-north Dallas addresses that fall in Collin County.
Check the county first. A Dallas mailing address does not guarantee a Dallas County parcel; northern parts of the city sit in Collin and Denton counties, each with its own appraisal district.
Texas is a non-disclosure state, so Dallas County deeds generally will not show what the owner paid.
Compare the owner mailing address with the property address. When they differ, the owner is usually absentee — a landlord or second-home owner — and often worth a different pitch than an owner-occupant.
