County assessors website
Does it normally cost a fee to use the county assessors website? I was looking at mine and the place I went to wanted $45 a month to look up information.

Make sure it's the official government site and not a private service charging a fee. I've found different places have better or worse access, where Raleigh, for instance, has wonderful online access, easy to use, while Virginia Beach is much more limited. But they are both free. So you're likely on a private, not government, site that wants to charge you to provide access to the information they gather.
