You might be able to find out some info on the computer, it's really going to depend on where you are and what exactly you want to find out. If you're looking for information about who owns the property, I'd suggest looking up your local tax assessor to see if they have a database. If they don't, you may be able to find out who they have listed as the owner by calling them. Yes, a title company search can tell you a lot about the property, but it may not be the information that you're looking for. Normally a title report (sometimes called a "commitment") will tell you about any open liens (mortgages, tax liens, unpaid contractors, etc.), easements, conditions and restrictions (for example, you can't have a fence more than 6' high in this neighborhood, that sort of thing). However, if you're looking for more of a history of the building (did any famous people live here, any exciting events, etc.), you'd probably want to check with the neighbors and/or the historical society. Hopefully this helps, Good luck!

Usually the county or city clerk's office holds those records.  They are typically viewable on the county or city clerk's website, if they have one, depending on where you live.  You would look under the area of mortgages & deeds.

Go to the local Registrar of Deeds (or whatever your local public records office is called) and tell the person there that you would like to look up the information on such-and-such property.  He/she will show you how to use the card file or the computer to do the search.  You need to know either the owner's name or the Legal Description of the property.  If you don't know, the local Tax Collecting Department can give you that information.

Go to your local courthouse and look it up in the public real estate records.

Most county recorders have their records available online, if not you will have to go to their office, in which case you can usually have a county employee help you do the search.  If searching online the records are usually indexed by the owner's name.  You can usually filter the search by document type, you would want to search mortages, liens, and judgments.\n\nDont forget to check if the taxes are paid, the water bill is current, and there are no building or zoning code violations.

Try your county Auditor and Recorder.\n\nThe auditor normally has info regarding how much a property has been purchased and what features a property contains, i.e. beds, bths, etc..\nThe recorder will give you auctual documentation of what liens are on a home. Mortgages, 2nds, etc..\n\nIt takes some research, but this public information  is powerful

You can use http://www.homeinfomax.com - you will need to subscribe for accessing property records (it's not a free service), but then you can instantly search by having only the property owner's last name and find all real estate properties (with detailed information) owned by that person within the city, county or ZIP code.

Yes there is.  I know that I could view everything about my neighbors including the price they paid for their house, how much it is worth now and everything there is to know about their house and land by looking in the County Tax maps section of the County website.  You will get their names and addresses as well.  \n\nOkay, I went and checked my own again.\n\nDo a google search for your county name plus the words "tax map" and you should find it there, it is all public information.\n\nOnce you get to the tax map you can search by any of the following:\nby Owner Name\nby Parcel ID#\nby Address\nby E-911 Street Range List\n\nI use the address search :)\n\nThen you can just enter the street name.  If you don't enter your house address but only your street name you will get a result returned of everyone on your street.\n\nThis will give you the Owner's name and address along with all kinds of other info.  \n\nRemember, this is the OWNER of the properties, the person who pays the taxes.  If someone rents then you aren't getting their name.\n\nOH, AND ONE MORE THING :)\nYou can find out if renters are living there by clicking on the "Advanced Real Estate Data" link and looking at the billing address.  If the billing address is different than the property's address then chances are they are renters and you probably shouldn't address your announcement to the owners.  In that case you should just address it "To MY NEIGHBOR" or something more friendly than "occupant" :)

you also might want to google your county name - and look for either the Real Estate Assement Office or the Office that collects your real estate taxes.  Most counties let you access assement info (including subdivision drawings) online

The county recorders office will likely have this on file. Otherwise, you can check the last MLS listing for the property address.

You can try online database such as realtor.com  or craigslist.org\n\nOR..  Try going to county recorder's office and getting the information of land owners in your area.  If it is an empty land, and you offer to rent it, I don't see why owner's will say no.
