You should be sure that everything in the house is to code. Also be sure to make sure that the house you are buying doesn't have any sort of dangerous mold.
There are many things that a first time home owner must know before buying a house. Never get a mortgage that is over 30 years and always inspect a house before buying it.
The property owner is telling the potential trespasser to beware of the dog.
Don't kill the store owner?
The only way to "own" a house is to purchase it from the legal owner.
Before buying an owner financed rent to own home be sure to have the contract checked out by an attorney. It is necessary to know what might violate the contract prior to signing.
In addition to the question, I am interested in buying this house and the owner is a relative.
The sale of a house does not terminate a rental agreement, but the rental agreement is with the former owner and not with the new owner, unless otherwise agreed in the sale. The former owner of the house is liable to the tenants for damages, unless otherwise stipulated in the rental agreement. You will have to evict the tenants to get them out, and they can sue the former owner. I don't think anyone would sell a house without some sort of transfer or termination of the lease. I am not a lawyer.
how do you find out if the owner still owe a finance company on the car you are buying?
Regardless of state, "can a owner of property show it to someone interested in buying?"
The OWNER is listed on the TITLE and/or registration. The buyer actually becomes the owner when all financial obligations are paid in full. For instance... when you are buying a house you are considered to be an owner because you hold the deed. But, there is a Deed of Trust for the property, held by the lender. That gives the lender the right to take the property if the borrower defaults.
If you own the things, he should have no right to them. Unless he/she is an ex husband/wife.. Then the Court should decide who is the rightful owner.
The owner of the house.
