Wichita Falls City Property Records in Texas
As the county seat of Wichita County, Wichita Falls is the place where most of the area's land records originate. The Wichita County Clerk records deeds, deeds of trust, oil and gas leases, mineral conveyances and plats, and offers a searchable index of those filings. Appraisals, ownership and homestead exemptions are managed by the Wichita Appraisal District, and the Wichita County Tax Office collects annual property taxes. Within the city, the City of Wichita Falls Community Development department handles zoning, building permits and code compliance. Because North Texas has a long history of oil and gas activity, mineral and royalty records are often worth checking alongside surface deeds. Litigation over title, liens or foreclosure is filed with the Wichita County District Clerk in the District Courts or the County Court at Law.
