Etymology

Inherited from Middle High German: hūssuochunge

Cognate with Dutch: huiszoeking

In summary

By surface analysis, Haus (“house”) + suchen (“to search”) + -ung (“-ing”). Formally from a rare Middle High German hūssuochunge, which is only attested in the slightly different sense “trespassing, unlawful entry”. For “house-search”, the older form is Middle High German hūssuoche, from Old High German hūssuohha. Compare Dutch huiszoeking.
