like  the rest of the houses in your neighbourhood and it sparks your

Here are some ways to find when your house 
was built
Play detective
Most community libraries have sections dedicated to local history,  
containing historical maps, old building plans and photographs. Go  
through old newspapers published around the time you suspect 
your  home was built to check for a mention of your address. All 
these too  may help with your search.
Have a thorough inspection of your house
If your house does not have a modern design, you may be in 
luck.  Taking a critical look at your home can give you a rough 
idea of  when the home was built. This will help narrow the 
scope of your  search immensely.

Check tax 
records
Checking your property tax records may save you the stress of carrying out 
further  investigation. Don’t rejoice yet, this method is not 100% guaranteed, but it 
is worth  a shot. If all the records have been carefully maintained, it should 
contain the  name of all the previous owners of your property.
Visit the county clerk#s office
You’ll want to get three documents from the office: the tract index, the Registrar 
of  Deeds and the grantor-grantee index.
Talk to your neighbours
This may be the easiest solution to finding out the age of your home. You 
may  have a similar home design as one of your neighbours showing that 
they were  built in the same era.
