The Whatcom County Assessor’s Office unveiled new online tools aimed to “enhance transparency and accessibility” for property owners and tenants to access crucial property data.
The new system will be run through Schneider Geospatial’s “Spatialest” software platform, and will provide detailed property information and records in a revamped “Property Portal,” which is a tool to compare property sales throughout the county, and the “Community” tool, which offers neighborhood information and property trends.
These new features are live on the Whatcom County Assessor’s Office website at bit.ly/49tQGNn.
According to a county press release, the tools will help provide greater transparency and lower barriers to access property data for both residents and professionals.
“Increased transparency for public data has been a goal of mine,” said county assessor Rebecca Xczar. “I am excited to launch these new online tools for the community.”
The website will still offer the real property search and interactive tax parcel viewer features from the previous version of the website.
