 Since
our introduction fifteen years ago, we have achieved our
Mission by managing a comprehensive real property sales database for
Cumberland, Adams, Berks, Perry, Franklin, Dauphin, Lebanon and York counties.
Sales records are updated about once each month using the property sales
report produced for public distribution by each county's Tax Assessment Office.
Please remember that some
sales reports are more complete than others. Visit our
Report Reviews pages to examine details,
such as the presence or absence of sales data, specific to each county
report. As new reports
arrive, records are
carefully entered onto a database template and published to the Web. This
means every confirmed sale (recorded in the Recorder of Deeds office)
in each county should appear in our database. |
||||
 These sales reports include
essential information such as the buyer, seller, parcel number,
address, deed reference, price, assessed value, sale date, building size
and acreage for sold
properties.
Use Codes, which describe the style or most recent use for a parcel of real
estate, are also present on a sales report. REDS applies a standard list
of use codes to the tens of thousands of commercial, industrial,
agricultural and residential properties sold annually in our area. Each
category of information can be thoroughly explored using our online
Search Filter. Even first time users
will quickly be doing their own "data mining" with this easy
to use search interface.In addition to our property sales database, we post lots of information here of interest to real estate professionals as it becomes available. From the drop down menu you can access millage rates, district numbers, common level ratios, Deed Service participants and contact information for county courthouses and municipal offices in the Keystone State. Reference census data, maps, links, our User Agreement and Table of Contents. Find out how to subscribe to Real Estate Data Services. Learn more about our online search tools to thoroughly examine the property sales database, view the results and print the records that satisfy your search criteria. Basic, intermediate and advanced search examples are presented. The extensive Help menu includes contact information, a Quick Start page, frequently asked questions and other levels of support.

It also represents our arrival with the database service to a destination we could only imagine when we were simply looking to become more efficient in our appraisal office.
