Is there an easy way to identify who owns a particular piece of property?  Thanks!

Have you tried checking the county tax assessor's web site?  Most of them have a way you can search for a particular parcel of land and get information on who owns it.  The hard part for rural addresses is knowing what address or how to find the legal description of the property.

One can query online the respective county's Central Appraisal District to determine the majority (but not all) property owners on record.

For rural areas when you don't have a street address, Dallas, Grayson (and probably all other counties) have a tax map where you can the parcel #, property owner etc.

Here is the link for Dallas County, for example:  http://dcadmaps.dallascad.org/website/dcad/viewer.htm

For Grayson county you have to get the prop ID and then go to the Grayson CAD website to find out who the owner is.

It is really not difficult, just tedious.

-OR-

You can also go to the CAD office (in Grayson county as of 2 years ago,  anyway) and if you can show the property on a map, they will give you the prop ID #.  There was a small fee for copies IIRC.   Just go before they get busy during tax time.

I run a part time wildlife consulting business and I went to a few CAD's and most had info you can purchase. Such as : track sizes,owners name,address( of property and owner ) and propert ID

depending on the county they have mapping programs that are ARCgis compatible that you can them manipulate.

Go to esri.com and you can download two free programs. I have used the ARCgis explorer and it was simple and easy

Most of the appraisal districts are on line... most use an outside vendor for their tax database, the biggest is Trueatomation.com but, if you can't find your county there go to TaxnetUSA

another interesting factoid is that googlemaps actually shows property boundaries in rural areas so you will know for sure if the property you are looking for is correct.  Turn off the satellite view and you can see the property lines.
