As noted above, many states now have all personal property liens through the Secretary of State's office, not the county. When I started at PCA in 1974, all personal property liens were recorded at the county. Most were moved to the Secy of State shortly thereafter, but "fixture filings" remained at county for a few more years- then they went to the state, as well, and at least in Washington, there have been no personal property filings at courthouse for at least 30 years.
UCC-1 filings is what you want to search- Some states can be searched on line, some cannot. Call your county recording office first to see if your state is still filing at county level- if not, call Secretary of State to find out how to search.
Filings are by name of debtor. Don't know how you would check out a tractor before an auction, as you don't know the owner's name.
