Barbara, instead of asking you for the city like the two answers above, let me give you the method. It works for any address in the country and it takes about five minutes. Start with the fork in the road. Whether a past sale price is findable at all depends on which state the property sits in. Most states are disclosure states, where the price gets recorded and anyone can look it up for free. But roughly a dozen states are non-disclosure states, where sale prices are not public record at all. The commonly cited list is Alaska, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Texas, Utah and Wyoming. Treat that as a starting point rather than gospel, because several of those are partial or county by county. Missouri is the clearest example. St. Louis City, St. Louis County, Jackson County and St. Charles County disclose sale prices, and the rest of the state does not. If your property is in one of these places, no amount of clicking produces a price, and you need an agent or an appraiser with MLS access to pull it. If you are in a disclosure state, here is the free path. - Search the county name plus "property appraiser" or plus "assessor" and use the address search. You get owner of record, parcel number, square footage, year built, assessed value, and usually the last sale price and date. - If the price is blank there, go to the county recorder, register of deeds, or clerk of court site and pull the recorded deed itself by parcel number or owner name. Now the part almost nobody explains. In states that charge a transfer tax collected as documentary stamps on the deed, the tax amount is printed on the recorded document even when the price is not. You can work backwards. Michigan charges 3.75 dollars per 500 dollars at the state level and 0.55 dollars per 500 dollars at the county level, which is 8.60 dollars per 1,000 dollars combined. Stamps of 1,720 dollars means a sale price of 200,000 dollars. Florida outside Miami-Dade charges 0.70 dollars per 100 dollars, which is 7.00 dollars per 1,000 dollars. Doc stamps of 2,100 dollars means 300,000 dollars. Miami-Dade runs its own rate, so handle that county separately. Rates vary by state and some counties add their own, so confirm the rate before you divide. One correction matters more than everything above. Assessed value is not market value. Do not read the assessor's number and call it the selling price. Plenty of states assess at a fraction of market value by statute, and states with assessment caps can leave that number years behind the market. California caps annual increases in assessed value at 2 percent under Proposition 13, so a home bought decades ago can carry an assessed value nowhere near what it would sell for today. Florida's Save Our Homes caps increases on a homesteaded property at 3 percent or the change in CPI, whichever is less. The gap is not an error, it is the law working as designed. Notice too that "selling price" is really two different questions. What did it last sell for is history, and the county has it. What is it worth today is a current opinion of value, and no website actually has that. Zillow publishes its own accuracy, and the numbers reported are roughly 2 percent median error for homes actively on the market and roughly 7 percent for off-market homes. Median means half of the estimates are worse than that, and the misses run wider on rural property, acreage, and anything unusual. On a 400,000 dollar house, 7 percent is 28,000 dollars in either direction. And if the home is on the market right now, the asking price is simply published on the listing, so search the address with the city and you will see it. Here is the useful next step. Reply with the city and state, and tell me whether you are buying, selling, inheriting, or settling something. Those four situations get different answers, and an inherited property in particular usually needs a date of death value rather than today's value. I am Zoltan Peresztegi, a real estate professional working the South Bay and the Palos Verdes Peninsula here in Los Angeles County, so I am not going to pretend I know your market. Name the city and I am glad to introduce you to someone solid there who will run a comparative market analysis at no cost, which will beat any automated estimate you can find online. Zoltan

Do you have more information? For example home updates, any deferred maintenance that effects the home livability?

More details are required here, most importantly the town the property is located in. Keith Jean-Pierre Managing Principal The Dapper Agents Operations In: NY, NJ, FL & CA
