A look at how to obtain records for who owns a home.
Now, to help with that, I'm using the website called Bigger Pockets dot com for ry.
Now a Bigger Pockets has a list of various county assessor offices for different states.
And what comes in handy here is that if we're investigating a home, it might be for things like we
have an address, we want to find who the owner is for our investigation, or we want to see if a certain
individual owns a home for, say, if there is a legal dispute and want to find out what properties
he owns, what is asset worth is and whatnot.
We can use something like this to figure out, does he own a home?
Does he own additional property?
Now, fortunately for us, property records like this are public record.
So it's we won't have to get a subpoena or other stuff to figure that out.
Now.
Different assessors are going to have are going to work differently.
Some accessories will have the information online for a obtain others.
We're going to have to go in the county assessor office to obtain that information.
But again, it's public record, so not a big deal.
The other caveat I do want to bring up is while most of the time we could look at these public records
and find out who owns a particular home, there are different caveats to that, where if someone goes
to the trouble of setting up a say, living trust or using a business to purchase a home, then we're
not going to it's going to be a little bit harder for us to find the information.
But for the most part, most people are going to buy a home under their own name.
Now, it's pretty easy to use it.
So we're just going to click on Yuba County Assessor's office here.
And if I want to obtain records, I'm just going to swing over here to how do I am going to obtain.
And I can scroll down in here and I want to obtain a property record.
It's going to take me a self service portal.
I'm going to have to accept this here.
And then I could do a official record search.
To find out who owns that particular property.
So again, pretty easy.
This is a great way to find information on if someone who owns a particular home.
And again, since this is public records, if we have problems with this, we always can email.
We can simply call the clerk's office or drop by there.
Again, this was how to find public records for who owns a home.
And the website for this is bigger pockets dot com for c r.
