Search Brunswick County Property Records

This page helps users complete a Property Search in Brunswick County, North Carolina and understand which official tools to use for real estate records, tax details, property cards, and GIS map information.

The main public resources are the Brunswick County Tax Office Real Estate Search and the Brunswick NC Property Record Card tool, with Tax Administration available for questions about displayed data.

Brunswick County Real Estate Search

Use the Brunswick County Tax Office Real Estate Search to look up real property records by owner, parcel, account, PIN, address, tax year, and other property details. At least one field is required.

• Owner last name or owner first name
• Account number, parcel number, or PIN
• Tax year
• House number, unit, street name, street type, suffix, or municipality
• Property address
• Advanced fields such as legal land size range, legal land type, or zoning type

The search is designed for inventory information on real and personal property in Brunswick County. Public deeds, plats, and other records should be used to verify details when accuracy is important.

• Open the Real Estate Search tool.
• Enter at least one search field, such as owner name, parcel number, PIN, or address.
• Use advanced fields only when you need to narrow a broad search.
• Review the returned property details and compare them with recorded deeds, plats, or other public records when needed.

Property Record Card search tool

The Brunswick NC Property Record Card search tool provides another way to find property information. It includes search and map options, along with filters for neighborhood, land use, legal land type, improvement type, valuation model, quality, actual year built, bedrooms, baths, heated area, total market value, sale price, and deed date.

Important: Tax information shown in the Property Record Card tool is not a certification that taxes are paid or currently due, and it may not include additional Discovery or Deferral bills.

The Property Record Card tool lists its data as last updated on 06/11/2026. For the best experience, the tool recommends modern browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari, and Opera.

Real property records and valuation details

Brunswick County real property includes land, buildings, structures, improvements, and other permanent fixtures. Mobile homes on a permanent enclosed foundation can also be treated as real property when the land is owned by the mobile home owner.

Brunswick County revalues real property every 4 years. The current valuation is effective January 1, 2023, and the next county-wide revaluation is scheduled to take effect January 1, 2027.

Real estate in Brunswick County is permanently listed, so it does not require an annual listing. Property owners must report new buildings, additions, improvements, and deletions that occurred during the preceding calendar year or earlier.

GIS maps and parcel details

Brunswick County GIS provides maps and location-based information such as land use, zoning, soil maps, centerlines, street information, cemetery information, and municipal data. The GIS Data Viewer can show parcel boundaries, ownership information, acreage, parcel dimensions, orthoimagery, legal descriptions, and deed or plat references.

For parcel searches in the GIS Data Viewer, the county guide recommends searching by parcel ID when possible because address entries may not match county records exactly. Deed book, deed page, plat book, and plat page references can be used with the Register of Deeds online record search to view unofficial recorded documents.

Tax bills, payments, and collections

The Brunswick County Tax Office handles listing, appraising, assessing real and personal property, maintaining property maps, updating ownership changes, and collecting current and delinquent taxes.

Real and personal property tax bills are usually mailed in July or August. Taxes are due September 1, and property owners are given until January 5 to pay without interest or penalties. For 2025 taxes, bills are due and payable on September 1, 2025, and can be paid without interest through January 5, 2026.

Payment options and fees include:

Property value appeals

Property owners may appeal county-assessed real estate values beginning January 1 each year. The deadline is the day the Board of Equalization and Review adjourns, which can be as early as April 1.

Real property appeals may be based on whether the value is significantly higher or lower than actual fair market value as of January 1, 2023, or whether the value is inconsistent with similar properties. Percentage change from a prior value, areawide average changes, and ability to pay are not valid reasons for a real property value appeal.

Supporting information may include recent appraisals, market analysis, sales contracts, surveys, perk tests, photographs of major damage or needed repairs, and recent comparable sales before January 1, 2023.
