Search property records If you're looking for a history of actual home sale transactions and how much a house has sold for instead of a market value, try searching for property records. These records include a chronological history of the property, including information about past transactions.
Sales history is typically easily available — often discoverable on any of the various online home sales search platforms or in person, usually at the office of the recorder of deeds. The recorder's office will likely have electronic and paper files for you to search.

Contact a Real Estate Agent They have access to updated inventories and sales in their local real estate market. So, contacting a real estate agent may offer you more information than you're likely to get on your own. A realtor can tell you more about a home, including how much it's sold for.
Look up the address in search engines. Head to real estate websites. Check with your county clerk's office. Talk to the county tax assessor's office. Consult a real estate agent.
Head to real estate websites. You can also use real estate sites like Zillow, Realtor, Homes, or Trulia. For example, on Realtor, you can head to a particular section called “recently sold homes.” Here, you can find information on the latest sale prices in your area of interest.
Hiring someone to help you is not legally required, but a real estate agent and a lawyer can help you avoid serious mistakes and get the most out of your home sale.
Selling a ``house'' or ``home'' for a dollar is not an arm's length transaction. This means the Fed and state governments will impute a fair market value and hit the seller with a gift tax. The ``buyer'' chills. Good luck.
