If I understand your request properly, the sale of real estate is a public record. You have to go to the town hall or whoever is holding the records of real estate transactions in that area and found out who owns the building now. That record will tell you from whom and when it was purchased. You then search that record and keep going backwards until you hit your Great Aunt's records.
