Welcome!
The goal of this web site is to help you find the information you need and to keep our "electronic office" open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Throughout our site you will find information about tax-saving exemptions, how we appraise your property and our other services. You can search our records for a variety of information on any property in Pierce County and it's absolutely FREE!
The Assessor-Treasurer's Office is really your office - we are your employees and we are here to serve you. My goal is to provide maximum service to you at a minimum cost. I don't know of any public office that works harder to get the job done more accurately and efficiently for you.
As the Assessor-Treasurer, I DO NOT determine or raise your taxes. I DO administer tax law and value all property subject to taxes as mandated by the Washington State Legislature. Your actual assessment value is determined by comparable sales. In other words, your property is compared with similar homes that have recently sold in your area.
My door is always open to you. If at any time you have a question about assessments in Pierce County that my knowledgeable staff cannot answer, I want you to call me personally at (253) 798-3710. My goal, my commitment to you is to pay Only Your Fair Share, Not a Penny More But Not a Penny Less.
