If your in the real estate field you should be able to find rather easily. If your not in the field then it would be much harder to get legitimate lists. Think outside the box, you have the resources if you are in real estate/
There are a number of “public record” databases available through the various title companies (First Amercian, Stewart, etc.) that will provide you with basic property data (sale prices, dates, lot sizes, physical attributes, etc.) for properties nationwide (reidata, metroscan, etc.)
Depending on what you need (details) most sources can be downloaded and imported into excel. I’ve used both the REIdata and Metroscan in my market (Las Vegas) with good results. Smaller markets are limited. Many larger metro areas have public record information online for most properties.
The larger title companies are also global, with resources outside the USA.
I research and invest in properties all around the U.S. To keep from having to look up the same research websites over and over again, I made a web page which I will share with you at There you can locate foreclosure, REO and tax deed properties, evaluate the values by address, evaluate the neighborhoods and environment, evaluate the long and vacation rents, screen tenants, find local property management, evaluate credit, and more. Good luck!
