At ATTOM, we provide assessor data for more than 155 million properties and their valuations in over 3,000 counties nationwide. This data gives you access to publicly available information that has been collected by county tax assessor offices. This data offers information that includes:

We also offer property assessed value data. Depending on the county, a country assessor may provide real estate assessed values, or market values — with the intention to calculate the annual property taxes due from each property owner. The assessed value is a percentage of this calculated value that typically weighs up various factors like square footage, property characteristics, property values in the area, and market conditions.
