Centralia at a glance
Selling a house in Centralia
Centralia was laid out in 1857 along the North Missouri Railroad. Its best-known employer, the Chance company, was founded here in 1907, is now part of Hubbell, and still makes utility hardware in town. The community celebrates that history every year at Anchor Fest.
The 2020 Census counted 1,930 housing units in Centralia, with about 6.3% vacant. In a smaller market like this there are fewer recent sales to compare against, especially for houses that need work. That can make pricing harder, so we show you which nearby sales we used and why.
Owners of older homes often weigh the cost of updates against selling as-is. We are glad to help you compare the two.
Situations we can help with
- An older family home that needs updates
- A house inherited from a relative
- A rental that no longer makes sense to keep
- A move closer to work or family
Local records and property taxes
Most Centralia property is in Boone County, where deeds are recorded with the Boone County Recorder of Deeds and taxes are collected by the Boone County Collector. Properties in the Audrain County portion are handled by Audrain County offices. In Missouri, real estate taxes that remain unpaid on January 1 become delinquent (RSMo 140.010), and delinquent property can eventually be offered at the county tax sale held on the fourth Monday in August (RSMo 140.150). If you are behind, the county collector can tell you exactly what is owed.
