Land Records

The Hertford County Land Records / GIS office is a link between the Register of Deeds Office and other County Offices that require current property ownership information and graphic representation of the property associated with the ownership record.  All deeds conveying real estate recorded prior to January 1 are transferred for the upcoming year’s ad valorem taxes.  The Hertford County Land Records / GIS office uses that information to maintain and update the property ownership maps used by the Tax Assessors Office and other County Offices.  The Land Records / GIS office processes changes in ownership and property line information based on deeds, plats, wills and other recorded documents with the Register of Deeds and Clerk of Court Offices.  The Land Records / GIS office also assigns all new house addresses for the rural areas of Hertford County and maintains the County’s centerline database.  The staff are individually State certified by the North Carolina Land Records Department and maintain this certification by continuing education hours.   You may view our tax maps through our GIS system online or on one of the two public terminals in our office.

Geographic Information System (GIS)

All real estate properties are mapped into the GIS database. The map information on our online GIS site includes property lines, flood plain (provided by FEMA), road names as well as many other layers.  Recent aerial photography (2009) is also available on the GIS website.  Information may also be obtained regarding ownership, deed book and page references, valuation information, address and or location.

Review Officer  

Pursuant to GS -47 -30, personnel in this office are appointed as Review Officers for plat review before recording.

Custom Map Requests

Printing maps from your computer is free with our GIS website; However, in some instances there is a need for a custom map to be made.  The Land Records / GIS office can make custom maps at your request following payment.  Please see the fee schedule for more information.
