This page helps users with a property search in Winnebago County, Illinois by explaining where to look up parcel details, map-based property information, and assessment-related help.
The main official resources are the Winnebago County Supervisor of Assessments Parcel Details Inquiry and the WinGIS property search map.
Winnebago County Supervisor of Assessments Parcel Details Inquiry
The Winnebago County Supervisor of Assessments Parcel Details Inquiry lets users search current parcel information and historical parcel information back through 2003.
You can search by one of these categories:
- Parcel Identification Number, using Pin 1, Pin 2, Pin 3, and Pin 4 fields.
- Parcel location, using number, direction, street, and suffix fields.
- Owner's name, using last name and first name fields.
Use the search option that matches the information you already have. A parcel number is usually the most direct route when available, while owner name or property location can help when the parcel number is not known.
