Tips for after you pull

• The record has no property address. Search the owner name at the Hillsborough Property Appraiser to find the property.

Watch out for these

• In the results we checked, the Legal Description column was empty. Expect to find the property with the owner name.
• The lender or association is usually in Name, and the owner is usually in Cross-Party Name. Check each row, because some are the other way around.
• In the export file, Name is Grantor and Cross-Party Name is Grantee.
• Status U means Unverified, as the page explains. Recent records showed this status.
• Many owners are companies. Remove them if your list is only for people.
