The City offers an interactive map providing access to property records such as drawings, final/parcel maps or building records.  To search, all you need is an address or Assessor’s Parcel Number or simply zoom into a property of interest and click on it to find results. Ready to start? Click the Carlsbad’s Interactive Open Data Map Portal.    

Once on the interactive map, here are some tips on using the map:

Enter the address at the top right corner 

Or you can zoom to the area of interest. Zoom in until additional information populates.

• For improvement and grading plans, click on the centerline of the street which opens a new box. To view records, select the Centerline ID hyperlink. 

• For maps, click on a parcel, which opens a new box. To view records, select Final Map Number hyperlink. If a map number does not populate, the property may have been created by another instrument. To learn more what created a parcel, this information is typically reflected on a Preliminary Title Report.

• For planning or building permit records, click on a parcel which opens a new box. To view records on the parcel, click the address or parcel (APN). If there are no links, there may be no linked records to view. 

NOTE: Selecting hyperlinks will take you to the city’s public records site with a list of records linked to the item you selected. From there you can click to view records.
