Richfield City Property Records in Minnesota

Richfield is an inner-ring suburb of Minneapolis in Hennepin County, Minnesota, bordering the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport and Minnehaha Creek. Its housing stock is largely mid-century single-family homes, so older records and past permits are often useful for owners.

Deeds, mortgages and easements are recorded by the Hennepin County Recorder, and registered land is handled by the Hennepin County Registrar of Titles, both accessible via Hennepin County's online property records. The Hennepin County Assessor publishes values and classifications, and the Hennepin County Treasurer manages property tax bills and payments. Building permits, rental licenses and zoning records are kept by the City of Richfield. Court matters such as foreclosures, judgments and probate are on file with the Hennepin County District Court (Fourth Judicial District). The Minnesota Department of Revenue offers further property tax information.
