Answer 5

I have always been able to find this information on line in my state and those surrounding me - BUT  Houston County  seems to be very private with this information.  You could try e-mailing the county surveyor (might save a trip down there) you can find his address on this page.

Answer 7

Go down to county records on look it up.  It's free and available to anyone who wants to look.  They normally are pretty helpful in telling you how to search.  In this case it's probably just by street adress....then owner info pops up.

go to the county assessor & see who the tax bills go to or at least get a PIN, then check the county recorder to find out who signed the mortgage.
