Find the right record office

Start with the jurisdiction.

All 95 Virginia counties and 38 independent cities. Choose the jurisdiction for your property, then follow the parcel, document and approval paths for any CRE asset type.

Record paths across Virginia

Confirm the county and any incorporated town responsible for the parcel. A postal city name alone does not identify the assessment or land-use authority.

  1. 01

    Parcel and assessment

    Use Virginia's local-government directory to locate the county or independent city. From its official site, find the assessor or commissioner of the revenue and the parcel or real-estate record. Record the parcel ID and assessment year.

  2. 02

    Deed and recorded documents

    Locate the responsible circuit court clerk and confirm the land-record search route. SRA image access requires clerk authorization and a subscription; free index access is available only where the clerk has enabled it.

  3. 03

    Use, approvals and permits

    From the official local-government site, identify planning, zoning and building offices. Confirm whether county, city or town rules apply to the proposed activity, then request the relevant approvals, conditions and permit records.

Browse all 133 jurisdictions

133 of 133 jurisdictions listed alphabetically.

Jurisdiction names and FIPS identifiers: U.S. Census, January 2025. These official entry points help you locate the responsible office. Confirm the available records, access terms and currency for the property you are researching.

One working file to take back to the team

Connect the records. Preserve the exceptions.

1. Inspect two worked rows.

The fictional example shows the actual columns, document mismatches and open decisions for this task.

2. Build your own register.

Start blank, edit the cells and add as many records as the review needs, up to 200 rows per file.

3. Export and assign review.

Download the register as CSV or a readable text file, including source context and edition. The companion below helps organize the next document requests.

How to use the table

  1. Choose any county or locality in the directory. Start a row for each property and evidence question.
  2. Keep the municipality, asset type, custodian and actual document locator together. Preserve conflicting versions in separate rows.
  3. Assign each unresolved question to a reviewer, then export the register as CSV or text with the supporting documents.

Start with a blank row or load the fictional example.

Your entries remain in this page only. Download or copy before leaving; nothing is automatically saved or fetched.

Add one record or comparison per row. Leave unknown facts blank or name the missing document. Scroll the table horizontally on a small screen. Each cell accepts up to 2,000 characters.

Take the working file with you

You can export this blank table before filling it in elsewhere. The export includes the kit edition, row provenance and method references. Method references do not verify your property.

CSV copy fallback

If file saving is blocked, copy this into a UTF-8 .csv file.

This table does not upload documents, search records, run an AI model or confirm source facts. The next-request worksheet below is a separate companion; entries are not copied between the two tools.

Companion: document requests

Turn unresolved items into a review handoff.

This separate four-item sheet helps organize supporting requests. It does not copy or analyze the entries in your register.

Open, work, export

Make the next decision easier to review.

Connect any Virginia county and CRE asset to the record custodian, document evidence and next review decision.

01 County, independent city or town authority

A Virginia mailing address can point to a different authority than the property jurisdiction.

Observations and source reference
02 Parcel-to-clerk record path

The land-record clerk and online access route must be identified separately from the parcel map.

Observations and source reference
03 Proposed use and approval file

The marketed asset label does not establish permission for the buyer's activity.

Observations and source reference
04 Current scope and operating evidence

Approval documents and seller schedules must describe the same premises and operating inventory.

Observations and source reference

Works in this page. No uploads, record searches, contact capture or automatic saving. Download your sheet before leaving.

Method and source context

Keep the evidence with the worksheet.

These references explain the method. They do not verify facts about your property. Your export keeps their scope separate from the document references you enter.
