How to Find a Person's Property

How to Find a Person's Property thumbnail
You can look up real property by accessing a county's Property Appraiser's office.

A person's property can be classified as "real" or "personal." Real property describes land and everything attached to it. Personal property describes all other property a person has ownership rights to. This includes jewelry, clothing, animals, stock, bonds and patents. Finding a person's property or assets can require the use of special services offered by private investigation firms. You may also search for a person's property by accessing a county's Clerk and Comptroller's Office and the Property's Appraiser office.
