Ask the people living in it.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

Sometimes a quick search on rightmove would tell you when it was rented out and for much. Apart from that nothing else you can do as its probably not even on rent.0

And hope that they tell you the truth
Seriously, that's the best you can hope for.
Worked for me with a neighbour. And they gave me the landlord's contact details although that took a bit more persuasion.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

My previous post is presuming that we're talking England here?
In Scotland all LL's need to be registered so it's easy.0 -

Why do you need to know though?Pink Sproglettes born 2008 and 2010

Buy the title register from the Land Registry, assuming it’s in England/Wales and assuming that the address for the owner(s) is correct.0

Lie. Knock on the door and ask them if it's rented as somebody at work wants to move to the area and you were wondering if they could recommend the best local renting agent for them to check out.....
Lies work.
Has to be somebody from work in case you get dragged into a future conversation ... somebody from work is somebody you can be vague about if asked... "how did they get on?" "dunno, we work different hours" .... "not my dept" .... lies... work wonders.0
