Does anyone know a relatively cheap and quick way of getting the details of the owner whom I’m interested to buy a unit off? Property currently vacant so I can’t really knock on the door and don’t think the leasing agent would tell me if I asked. By the way, I’m in NSW. Would a titles search at the land office give me that info? Then I suppose I either have to write to them or look the name up in the white pages? If anyone has a better solution, keen to hear your thoughts. Thank you kindly.
A 1km RP Data search around the property will provide this information or you can just check the single address through the Council or if you know a real estate agent with access to RP Data in the area you seek.
I also find asking a neighbour works well especially if they have an adjoining fence or wall as both have to pay for maintenance or repair or maybe even insurance if a duplex.

Thanks Mortgage Adviser. You must be a night owl just like me!
I am like Codral – Night and Day. I am a bit of an insomniac. I only sleep 4-5 hours in every 24-36 hours.

I wish I could. I need at least 8 hours a day!,..(and about 10 at night!). I went to the 7/11 last night at 6pm and they were shutting up! I asked them ‘Hey, I thought you’re open 24 hours?’ ‘We are’, replied the guy ‘but not in a row!’
Gatsby.Assuming it is in NSW, the Land Titles Office has a record of all owners.
You can visit them in Sydney CBD (perhaps also other offices around the state) or go via one of their online brokers to get the registered owner.

tax records at your county recorders ofc ask for parcel and tax info for current or last owner

Thanks for all the info guys. Ohblessed, can I ask what “county recorders” are? I’ve looked at the land titles office but looks like I need to pay $8 everytime and then I suppose I need to try to locate the owner through the white pages. Will give it a try. Cheers
