Have a title company do an abstract of title.  You will have to pay for this.  You can go to the county clerk's office and do it yourself, but it is time consuming.

You can do a title search in the local county office. All real estate titles are public record.

Ask any realtor.  This information is readily available to them.  The title or deed for the house lists all of the previous owners, what improvements were made (such as when structures on the land were built), and dated records of how much it was sold for.  I believe there is a way to obtain this information from your county's courthouse as well.

Call your county assessor.  All property owners and tax assessments are a matter of public record.  I know in my county we can look at GIS maps online, click on a particular property address and see the owner's name & address (if different from the property address).

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!

If the occupants are the land owners, the information is public record in the tax database of the county where you live. If they are renters, I am not sure how to get an accurate list since renters tend to move frequently.

Below is the website of the Montgomery County recorder's office. You should be able to log in as a guest and search there for a specific property. If you are just looking for a list of owners in a specific area, like all the owner's on "Main Street", I'd recommend checking the tax assessors database which is the second website listed. I have not done a search for anything on either site, but normally these sites are pretty self-explanatory or have instructions. I hope this helps!

You'd have to do some research to get to the age of the house but your city or county should have and online GIS or Polaris system where you can get some basic information about the property.  An appraiser may be able to help you and a transaction line tracking the house can be gotten at the register of deeds office.  Also sometimes the style of the house can give you a span of when the house was built.  \n\nGood luck.

I don't think you want to look at the lease to the house.  It sounds like you are more interested in locating the deed to the house sometimes called a "Warranty Deed", "Quit Claim Deed" or "Special Warranty Deed."\n\nThese records are filed at the Recorder's Office of the county.  You can call the county and find out very quickly how to view the actual deed. Some larger counties make the deeds veiwable online.\n\nAt any rate, you should be able to go the the Recorder's office and search on a computer or through books and find the deed and see who shows to be the owner.\n\nBest of luck.

Most states have a program that requires financial institutions and other businesses to send them any unclaimed property.  This includes things like dormant bank accounts, unused gift certificates, unclaimed inheritance and things like that.  In order to find it, go to the website for the states you have lived in and you can find a link to their listing.  You look up your name and it tells you if they have anything in your name.
