When our platform detects multiple parcels for a single physical address, what is occurring is that you, as a property owner, likely have an adjoining parcel(s), generally vacant or with limited structures, to which you are also the legal owner.

To continue with HouseAmp, we need to know which parcel number is attached to the parcel on which your residence is located.

Parcel numbers

In the United States, each parcel is typically assigned an Assessor’s Parcel Number (APN) by the county (or city) taxing authority where the property is located. In your county, the taxing authority may use an alternative term other than APN but with the same meaning including:

·       Assessor's identification number (AIN)

·       Property identification number (PIN)

·       Property identification (PID)

·       Property account number

·       Tax account number

·       Sidwell number

Locating your parcel number

The easiest way to identify your parcel number is to refer to your annual property tax statement, which was mailed to you by your county taxing agency. The parcel number, APN, AIN, PIN, etc should be clearly marked on the tax statement. With multiple parcels, you will generally have multiple tax statements.  

Alternatively, if you don’t have access to your tax statement, you can search for your property on the county website (either the county assessor or county taxing authority). A directory of county websites across the United States can be found here on NetrOnline.

Please identify the parcel number for the property on which your residence is located.
