Michigan property records — FAQ
How do I find out who owns a property in Michigan?
It depends on the county: some Michigan counties publish owner names online and some redact them. Pick your county below — pages for name-publishing counties show owners free on the map; in redacting counties the property details are free and the owner's name comes with enrichment.
Can I do a property title search in Michigan for free?
The first layer, yes: who holds title now comes from county records WhoseTitle serves free. The full document chain — every recorded deed, mortgage, and lien — lives with each Michigan county's recorder or clerk, and a title company examines it when a deal needs certainty. Start with a free title search here, then go deeper only when it matters.
Is property ownership public record in Michigan?
Yes — like every U.S. state, Michigan treats property ownership, assessments, and recorded deeds as public records. How much each county publishes online varies (some counties withhold owner names from their websites), which is exactly what the county pages below document, county by county.
Can I build an absentee-owner list in Michigan?
Yes — most covered Michigan counties publish owner mailing addresses. When the mailing address differs from the property address, WhoseTitle flags the owner as absentee: draw your target area and filter for the flag.
