How to verify property ownership?

[Daniel Rosado]

I've tried a couple of subscription sites to verify a property's owner and owner's mailing address but find that they're too expensive. Realtytrac, for example, is $50/month and gives you reliable ownership information. However, I feel like that price is that high because of the foreclosure information that they provide. I've been going directly to the County Recorder's office to find foreclosure properties so I don't really need to pay a subscription service for that.

Is there another tool I can use to get reliable ownership information?

Thanks.

@Daniel Rosado Realtors can look up that info for free so team up with a local realtor and ask them. You also can go to that county's tax assessor office website and put in the address.
