The records from 2018 might have notes on the condition of the tank, whether any baffles were replaced or should be replaced, etc. Walk the leach field to look for wet spots that would indicate broken tiles or plugged lines. See if there is a distribution box. If there is one you can take the lid off and observe the flow when you turn on all the faucets and flush the toilets. Same with the tank. The fluid level shouldn’t rise much. You can push a long pole straight down into the tank. If solids are less than 1/3 the depth of the tank you are Ok for now.
I would get a flow test on the well. Make sure it can supply all the water you might need.
