RivCoView real property data portal
Search property data in RivCoView when you need a map-based way to review real property information. RivCoView covers real property data, sales, permits, assessment information, and mapping tools.
The portal includes map controls for terrain, satellite, and labels. It also supports measuring on the map, printing, exporting, and clearing selections. The displayed data update shown in the portal is 05/03/2026.
Use RivCoView when a map view, parcel location, or Assessor Map PDF is more helpful than a text-only search result.
Assessor maps and parcel details
The Assessor’s office maintains more than 21,000 maps that show parcels of land in Riverside County. These maps are used as the basis for real property assessment and are updated as subdivisions and parcels change.
RivCoView provides property and recent sales viewing and links to Assessor Maps as free downloadable PDFs. The maps include Assessor’s parcel numbers, parcel and lot boundaries, recorded dimensions, acreage, street widths, adjoining parcels, and recorded map information.
Street addresses and ownership are not shown on Assessor’s maps. The Assessor’s parcel can be used to obtain ownership and address information through the appropriate property information tools.
Public property records at Assessor offices
The Assessor’s office provides public information service for taxpayers with property questions. Property ownership, parcel maps, and other property information are available for viewing on computers and microfiche in the public area of the Assessor’s office during normal business hours.
Regional office assistance is also available for non-urgent inquiries. For formal FOIA or California Public Records Act requests, use the “Request a Public Record” option provided by the Riverside County Assessor-County Clerk-Recorder.
Property sales report
The Riverside County Assessor provides a Property Sales Report covering transfers of interests in property, other than undivided interests, within the preceding two-year period. The data is updated quarterly.
The report is available as an Excel file, and the listed file size is 14.8 MB. Use this report when you need countywide transfer information rather than a single-parcel lookup.
