Humph.. No need to feel silly. 8th person in 10 years is a really high turnover rate. Add weird things going on in the house, and, well I'd be freaked.. \n\nHave you contacted these people ?\nhttp://members.tripod.com/GhostHuntersSociety/Home.htm

Your county recorders office.  They will have all the info on your home; past uses, owners, liens and judgments filed against, ect.

Yes there is.  I know that I could view everything about my neighbors including the price they paid for their house, how much it is worth now and everything there is to know about their house and land by looking in the County Tax maps section of the County website.  You will get their names and addresses as well.  \n\nOkay, I went and checked my own again.\n\nDo a google search for your county name plus the words "tax map" and you should find it there, it is all public information.\n\nOnce you get to the tax map you can search by any of the following:\nby Owner Name\nby Parcel ID#\nby Address\nby E-911 Street Range List\n\nI use the address search :)\n\nThen you can just enter the street name.  If you don't enter your house address but only your street name you will get a result returned of everyone on your street.\n\nThis will give you the Owner's name and address along with all kinds of other info.  \n\nRemember, this is the OWNER of the properties, the person who pays the taxes.  If someone rents then you aren't getting their name.\n\nOH, AND ONE MORE THING :)\nYou can find out if renters are living there by clicking on the "Advanced Real Estate Data" link and looking at the billing address.  If the billing address is different than the property's address then chances are they are renters and you probably shouldn't address your announcement to the owners.  In that case you should just address it "To MY NEIGHBOR" or something more friendly than "occupant" :)

you can try asking the neighbors first for some general information (e.g. who lived there before, what jobs did they have, etc.).  from there, you can try to look for more information in your local library (old newspapers and records).  you can also try your city hall first and ask which lother local government offices would have information on home owners.  you can also try to find out the architect of the home is (or was if that person is already dead).  if you bought your house through a real estate broker, try asking him or her for extra information.

Start with the police.  Also, talk to the owner of the establishment, unless he's one of the thieves.

Seems from your description, you may possibly be right.  The question of what you are going to do about it, depends on how strongly you feel about it.  Why don't you contact your neighbors and see what their opinions are.  You might want to document some of your findings by taking pictures and keeping a log.  There are other things that you can do if you are absolutely sure that the house is operating as a brothel.  Post signs, etc.  But be sure of your facts first, else you might be liable for harassment and damages.

Not me. Try your county police department or state police. Don't just call them to report it, ask to speak to someone who specializes in that area, or ask if anyone at the department knows of any special interest groups that you might contact concerning the alleged crime.

If you think there is some sort of cover up going on, alert the department of social services of your concern.  You might also hire a private investigator to do some digging on the history of the nursing home.

If you are in Aurora, contact the local historical society to see if they have any information on the home.  You could also go to the town clerk's office and look at the historical land records for that house and that could give you a clue to it's history too.

go to your local court building or city hall - I bet there are records in the basement somewhere.  I researched my apartment only to get lost in stories about folks...getting hit by a carriage, shot an adultress, TB, dying of odd stuff - it was facinating
