How do I find sale prices at home in Houston?
In the places I lived before, in Florida and Ohio, the purchase price of a property sold and date information is public and on the county property appraisers. Harris County (Houston that is) not show this info site evaluator. I am a real estate investor and the need for comps before you make offers on properties. I’d rather not go to a broker yet. How can I sell sale prices of homes in Houston that day get it without a broker? Reply

In Texas, recorded the sale price “$ 10 and other considerations.” It is a state of non-disclosure. It is best to be a broker.
The reason we don’t disclose to the state government how much we paid for a property is because we have not trusted our state government ever. We think that they will use that information to tax real estate transactions.
We also don’t want them to have that information to use to up our property tax values- but they have found ways around that.
