Hi everyone, I would like to ask if there is any free website for finding the owner of a property in the UK? Thank you for your advice.

    For starters, which part of the UK are you interested in, as there are three different jurisdictions.

    I am interested in Scotland to find the owner of a property.

    Registers of Scotland is the best place to start: https://www.ros.gov.uk/services/search-property-information
    Easier if it's a property registered in the Land Register, more tricky if it's still in the older Register of Sasines.
    May be other clues elsewhere e.g. if it's a residential property which is let out then the landlord details should be in the landlords' register: https://landlordregistrationscotland.gov.uk/
    If you tell us more about what sort of property it is and why you want to know, we may be able to help more.
