Need help. I recall a web site that has searchable records by street address that included complete history of a home' sale dates and value. Does anyone have that web site as I do not recall it and cannot find it. Thanks in advance for your help.

Never mind. I found it. Brazoscad

The dates should be accurate but the values may not truly reflect sales prices.

I don't think. They reflect actual sales price

What you are seeing is appraised value, not sales price.

Also, if you are looking for a recent transaction, dont count on the owners or deed info to be up to date.

Also the deed doesn't have to report the actual sale price -- it can be recorded as "$10 plus other valuable consideration" or something like that. The tax office will send you a form asking you to report the sale price, but you are under no obligation to do so, and if you're smart, you won't (unless you're in the rare position of paying less than your house's tax appraisal value)!

The amount of any loans taken out is recorded though, so they'll know you borrowed $X to buy your house, but not necessarily the actual sale price.
