Jackson County launches Public Property Access Portal to improve transparency and access to property information

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Jackson County is pleased to announce the launch of the Public Property Access Portal, a redesigned online tool to improve public access to property information for residential and commercial properties across the county.

The new public site offers users the ability to search the county’s assessment property records for both real and personal property. The goal is to provide a more streamlined and convenient way for residents to view publicly available property information.

“We are committed to increasing transparency and making it easier for residents to access the information they need,” said Jackson County Executive Frank White, Jr. “This portal represents a significant step toward more user-friendly government services.”

“This new portal is part of our ongoing efforts to modernize the assessment process and make information more accessible to the public,” said Jackson County Assessor Gail McCann Beatty. “We’re excited to roll out this tool and provide residents with improved access to the data they rely on.”

For the convenience of property owners, both the 2022 and 2025 property values can be found under the “Values” tab. Users can also print a copy of their impact notice and property record card as needed. Please note that property record cards are updated as information changes in the system and may vary depending on when they are printed.

While this tool provides convenient access to property records, it should not be used as an official or certified source of legal property documentation. The site may be updated over time to improve performance, design and functionality. The Public Property Access Portal is now live and can be accessed at publicaccess.jacksongov.org.
