A bill for an act relating to required information on certain recorded documents and statements of property taxes due mailed to titleholders.
This Iowa bill (SF 2256) requires full legal names (first and last) for individual property owners on recorded deeds and mandates detailed property tax statements mailed to titleholders. The statements must include year-over-year tax comparisons, itemized tax breakdowns by land/dwelling, and specific levy rates for each taxing authority. Counties have one year to contact owners with incomplete name information in their systems and request corrections, after which counties are not liable for tax errors caused by missing data. It directly affects individual property owners and county treasurers managing tax records.
