Columbus

Franklin County indexes the parcel and no address. The amount is inside the mortgage.

The Recorder's index names the parties and the parcel number of every mortgage recorded in Franklin County — no amount, no street address. Circlemark reads every commercial mortgage that falls due inside the next twelve months for the stated principal and maturity, ties it to the Auditor's roll by parcel number, and checks it against releases, modifications and sheriff's deeds every week.

Franklin County, the vintages due inside twelve months. As of Nov 4, 2026.

Where the numbers come from

  • Franklin County Recorder — mortgages, releases, partial releases, assignments, modifications, sheriff's deeds
  • Franklin County Auditor — parcel number, owner, land use, market value

A light read, and what that means

Columbus is one of the metros Circlemark reads light. Rather than every mortgage since 2015, the index is listed for the origination years whose maturity falls inside the next twelve months — the vintages a five-, seven- or ten-year term, or a three-year bridge, puts due now — and each mortgage's first pages are read for the stated principal and maturity, cited to the page. A loan due in three years is not listed yet; it will be when its vintage enters the window. How the light read works.

What the record does not say

The Recorder indexes no address and the Auditor's roll carries no coordinates, so a loan is placed on the map only through its parcel number — about five in six are — and a mortgage whose legal description names no parcel stays unplaced with its lender, borrower and amount intact. Property types come from Ohio's land-use code as the Auditor files it: apartments are a commercial use there, and the condominium rental codes that sit inside the residential range are read as multifamily, not as houses. Ohio forecloses through the Court of Common Pleas; the sheriff's deed that ends one is indexed by the Recorder and read as the foreclosure.
