Yes, police generally need to show a search warrant before conducting a search, unless there are specific circumstances that allow for a search without a warrant, such as consent or exigent circumstances.
It could be one. There are search warrants and arrest warrants. If you have a search warrant, the police are entitled to search your property. After executing the search warrant, if the police establish probable cause to believe that you committed a crime, they can arrest you. If you have an arrest warrant, it is only a matter of time before the police find you and execute the arrest warrant.

Yes, the officer may search. Police may search a building if they reasonably believe a valid search warrant has been issued. They do not have to possess the search warrant.
