The property tax records at the county tax assessor's office only go back to 2008. Is there a standard protocol for this situation or am I simply left with crossing my fingers and taking a wild guess?
The safest approach would be to engage a licensed (certified) property appraiser in your county to do a retroactive (historical) appraisal of the property, obviously for 1993.
Alternatively, you could use the land/improvements split on your most recent property tax bill and apply that retroactively (to the 1993 purchase price of $278,000).
