Search Bountiful City Property Records

Bountiful sits inside Davis County, Utah. All property records for the city are kept by county offices. The Davis County Assessor tracks who owns each parcel, how much land it covers, and the assessed value. The Davis County Recorder keeps every deed, mortgage, lien, and plat map filed in the county.

You can search these records from any computer or phone. The county runs two separate public search pages. One page covers assessor data like value, owner, and parcel size. The other page covers recorded documents like deeds and mortgages. Most property questions need both offices to get a full picture.

The search process follows a few simple steps:

  1. Decide which office has the record you need.
  2. Open that office’s public search page on the county website.
  3. Type an address, owner name, or parcel number into the search box.
  4. Open the result card that matches your search.
  5. Read the details, then save or print the page for your files.

Bountiful is a city in Davis County, located south of Farmington, which serves as the county seat. The city uses Davis County parcel numbers, school zones, and tax rates. Any record found through the county system applies to Bountiful addresses, including homes, condos, vacant lots, and commercial parcels.

Property Records Maintained by Davis County Offices

Bountiful has no city-run property record system. The city relies on Davis County for all public land records. Two county offices handle almost every record a buyer, seller, or researcher might need for a parcel inside city limits.

OfficeMain Records KeptPhone
Davis County Assessor’s OfficeOwner name, parcel ID, land size, building details, assessed value, tax year(801) 451-3250
Davis County Recorder’s OfficeDeeds, mortgages, liens, releases, plats, surveys, subdivision maps(801) 451-3225

The Assessor answers questions about value, ownership, and parcel maps. The Recorder answers questions about who signed a deed, when a lien was filed, and which document numbers match a property. Many searches start at the Assessor page and end at the Recorder page.

Step-by-Step Bountiful Property Records Search Process

A good search saves time. Start with one fact, then move to the next office. Most property lookups in Bountiful take less than ten minutes when you follow a clear order.

Steps to run a full property record search:

  1. Write down the street address or parcel number from a tax bill, listing, or deed.
  2. Open the Davis County Assessor search page.
  3. Enter the address or parcel number and press search.
  4. Open the parcel record to see the owner, lot size, and assessed value.
  5. Copy the parcel number from the Assessor page.
  6. Open the Davis County Recorder property search page.
  7. Paste the parcel number into the Recorder search box.
  8. Scan the list of recorded documents for deeds, mortgages, and liens.
  9. Click each document link to view the scanned image.
  10. Save or print the records you need for your file.

If the address is new, the parcel may not show up right away. New subdivisions in Bountiful take a few weeks to appear in the Assessor database after the plat is recorded with the county.

Using the Davis County Assessor Database

The Assessor database is the main tool for property lookups in Bountiful. It holds the legal owner, the mailing address, the parcel shape, the year built, and the latest assessed value. The database updates each year after the county sends out new value notices.

You can reach the public search page through the Davis County Assessor section of the county website. The page works on phones, tablets, and desktop computers. No login or account is needed for basic searches. The site runs on a secure county server, so all searches stay private to your browser session.

Search options on the Assessor page include:

  • Parcel number search
  • Owner name search
  • Property address search
  • Subdivision or plat search
  • Tax district search

Each result shows a parcel card. The card lists the owner, acreage, building square footage, year built, and the most recent assessed value. A map link on the card opens the GIS map for the same parcel, which makes it easy to check the lot shape and neighbors.

Pulling Deed History from the County Recorder

The Recorder holds the legal chain of title for every Bountiful parcel. The office records deeds, mortgages, trust deeds, liens, releases, easements, and plats. Each document gets a unique recording number and the date it was filed with the county.

The Recorder property search page can be reached through the Davis County Recorder section of the county website. The search box accepts parcel numbers, owner names, and document types. The results show a list of every document tied to the parcel, sorted by recording date from newest to oldest.

Common document types found in the Recorder database:

  • Grant deeds
  • Quitclaim deeds
  • Mortgages and trust deeds
  • Deeds of trust
  • Lien filings
  • Lien releases
  • Subdivision plats
  • Easement grants
  • Right-of-way documents

Click any document in the list to open a scanned image. The image shows the actual paper document filed with the county. You can download the image as a PDF for your records or share it with a title company.

Reading Parcel Maps, GIS Layers, and Acreage Data

Parcel maps show the shape and size of every lot in Bountiful. The county GIS system layers parcel lines on top of aerial photos, zoning maps, and floodplain data. The maps help users check lot lines, easements, and nearby roads without driving to the site.

The GIS map links from the Assessor parcel card. Click the map link on any parcel record to open the interactive map viewer. The viewer lets you zoom in, measure distance, and turn layers on and off. Common layers include parcel lines, zoning, school zones, and flood zones.

Map features users can check:

  • Parcel line shape
  • Acreage or square footage
  • Frontage on a public street
  • Adjacent parcel owners
  • Easement lines
  • Flood zone status
  • Zoning code

The GIS map works on phones and tablets. Touch the map to see parcel details, and pinch to zoom. Acreage data on the map matches the data on the Assessor parcel card, so the two tools give the same answer.

Assessed Value vs Market Value in Bountiful

Assessed value and market value are two different numbers. The Assessor sets the assessed value each year for tax purposes. The market value is the price a buyer and seller agree on in an open sale. In Bountiful, the assessed value often runs lower than the market value because of state tax rules.

The assessed value in Davis County is based on a formula set by Utah law. The formula looks at the market value, then applies a tax rate reduction. Residential and commercial parcels follow formulas set by the state.

MetricValue
Median sale price (May)$583,000
Average home value (Zillow)$585,615
Year-over-year change in average valueUp 2.6%
Median days on market7
Active listings104
Homes sold in May133
West Bountiful average home value$610,487

The assessed value sits below the market value in most cases. Buyers and sellers should look at both numbers when planning a purchase or a sale. The Assessor parcel card shows the assessed value, and recent Recorder deeds show the recorded sale price.

Tax Bill Retrieval and Payment Workflows

Property tax bills in Bountiful come from the Davis County Treasurer. The Assessor sets the value. The Treasurer sends the bill, collects the payment, and tracks delinquent accounts. The Recorder records tax liens when bills go unpaid for a long period.

The tax year in Utah runs from January 1 to December 31. Tax bills are mailed in the fall each year. Utah has only one property tax payment due date each year, which falls on November 30 at 5:00 PM. If November 30 lands on a weekend or holiday, the due date shifts to the next business day. Late payments add interest and a penalty fee on top of the tax owed.

Steps to view and pay a Bountiful property tax bill:

  1. Find the parcel number from the Assessor page.
  2. Open the Davis County Treasurer property tax page.
  3. Enter the parcel number into the search box.
  4. Review the current bill, prior year bills, and payment history.
  5. Pay online by card or e-check, or print a coupon to mail a check.

The Treasurer page shows the current amount due, the amount paid, and any lien filings. Delinquent parcels show a red flag on the parcel card in the Assessor database, which is a warning sign for buyers.

Recording Fees and Document Submission

The Recorder charges a fee to file each document. The fee covers the cost of scanning, indexing, and storing the paper record. Recording fees in Utah are set by state statute and apply to every county, including Davis County.

Common documents filed in Bountiful real estate deals:

  • Grant deed
  • Quitclaim deed
  • Trust deed
  • Mortgage
  • Lien release
  • Notice of completion
  • Easement
  • Right-of-way grant
  • Subdivision plat

Each document must meet state formatting rules. The first page of the document must list the return address, the mailing address, and a title. The Recorder rejects documents that miss required fields or that use the wrong page size. The office offers a line-by-line fillable form for common documents like grant deeds and notices of completion.

Document submission options at the Recorder office:

  • Walk-in at the front counter
  • Mail to the PO Box
  • E-recording through an approved vendor
  • Drop box at the office entrance

E-recording is the fastest option for title companies and law firms. The vendor sends the document to the county server, and the Recorder stamps and records it within hours of submission.

Appealing a Property Assessment in Davis County

Property owners who disagree with the Assessor value can file an appeal. The appeal goes first to the Davis County Board of Equalization. The board reviews the evidence and issues a decision. Owners who are not satisfied with the county decision can take the appeal to the Utah State Tax Commission.

The appeal window opens each year after the Assessor mails new value notices. The notice arrives in July or August. Owners have a set number of weeks to file an appeal with the county. Late appeals are rejected without review of the evidence, so timing matters.

Evidence that helps a Bountiful property appeal:

  • Recent sale prices of nearby homes
  • Photos of damage or defects
  • Repair estimates from licensed contractors
  • Rent schedules for income-producing properties
  • Income statements for commercial parcels
  • Appraisal reports from licensed appraisers

The appeal form is available on the Davis County Assessor page. Fill out the form, attach the evidence, and file it with the Board of Equalization. The board holds a hearing, reviews the evidence, and mails a decision within 60 days of the hearing date.

Request Forms and Certified Copy Orders

The Recorder sells certified copies of recorded documents. A certified copy includes a stamp and a signature that proves the copy matches the original record on file. Lenders, title companies, and courts often ask for certified copies instead of plain printouts.

Certified copy order options at the Recorder office:

  • Walk-in request at the front counter
  • Mail-in request with a signed order form
  • Online order through the Recorder public search page
  • Phone request with a credit card payment

The order form must list the document number, the recording date, and the parcel number. The form also needs the requester’s name, mailing address, and phone number. The Recorder mails the certified copy within three business days of receiving the order and payment.

Plain copies are also available. Plain copies are scans of the document without the certified stamp. Plain copies work for personal records, research, and family history projects where a certified stamp is not required.

Bountiful Neighborhoods and Subdivision Records

Bountiful has many named subdivisions spread across the city. Each subdivision has a plat map filed with the Recorder. The plat shows the lot lines, street layout, easements, and park space. Plats are public record and free to view on the Recorder search page.

Common subdivision types in Bountiful:

  • Single-family residential plats
  • Condominium plats
  • Townhouse plats
  • Planned unit developments
  • Cluster subdivisions
  • Mixed-use plats

A parcel search in the Assessor database shows the subdivision name. The name links to the original plat in the Recorder database. The plat lists the lot numbers, the block numbers, and the acreage of common space. Older plats may not be indexed in the online system and may need a counter request to view the scanned image.

Buyers should review the plat before closing. The plat shows the exact lot size, the frontage, and any easements that affect building plans. The plat also lists the restrictive covenants that run with the land, which can limit what the owner can build or do on the lot.

Sales Trends and Median Prices in Bountiful

Bountiful’s housing market moved fast in May 2026. The median sale price climbed to $583,000, up from a year earlier. Homes sold in a median of seven days, down from 15 days in April and 21 days in May 2026. Active inventory sat at 104 homes, nearly flat with the 103 listings from a year ago.

West Bountiful posted an average home value of $610,487, up 1.0% over the past year. The Bountiful average home value reached $585,615, up 2.6% over the past year. The 84010 and 84011 ZIP codes cover most of the city. Each ZIP code shows a slightly different price trend based on the homes sold in that area.

Factors shaping the Bountiful market:

  • Low interest rates in early 2026
  • Limited land for new construction
  • Strong demand from Salt Lake City commuters
  • Top-rated schools in the Davis School District
  • Short commute to downtown Salt Lake City

Buyers who track the market can compare monthly medians on real estate sites. The county Assessor data shows the recorded sale price on each deed. The Recorder database holds the actual sale document for closer review of the final price, the terms, and any seller credits.

School Zone and District Records Tied to Parcels

Bountiful falls inside the Davis School District. The district covers most of Davis County, including Bountiful, West Bountiful, Centerville, Farmington, and Layton. The district runs 13 elementary schools, 5 middle schools, and 3 high schools that serve Bountiful students.

The Assessor parcel card shows the school zone code for each address. The code links to the assigned elementary, middle, and high school. The district updates zone lines each year, so buyers should check the current zone before relying on an older map or a past listing.

School records available through public sources:

  • School zone maps
  • District attendance boundaries
  • School performance reports
  • District levy rates on the tax bill
  • Bond measures on recent ballots

The school district runs its own data portal. The portal shows class sizes, test scores, and graduation rates for every school. The county parcel card and the district portal work together to give a full picture of the schools that serve a Bountiful address.

Verifying Ownership and Title Chain Through Public Records

A title chain is the list of every owner of a parcel, going back to the first recorded deed. The chain shows how the property moved from seller to buyer over time. A clean chain has no gaps, no missing signatures, and no unreleased liens. A broken chain can delay a sale or lead to a title insurance claim.

Steps to verify the title chain for a Bountiful parcel:

  1. Open the Recorder property search page.
  2. Enter the parcel number.
  3. Sort the document list by recording date.
  4. Open each deed in the chain, starting with the most recent.
  5. Confirm each deed lists a grantor, a grantee, and a legal description.
  6. Check that every mortgage and lien has a matching release document.
  7. Note any gaps in the chain for the title company to resolve.

Title companies run a similar search before issuing title insurance. The public search is a good way to spot obvious problems. Complex title issues still need a professional title exam and title insurance before closing on the property.
