Property Ownership Without Deed

Summary

A house without a deed in Tennessee still has a legal owner, as ownership can be verified through other documents like a title. Titles include property descriptions, names of current and previous owners, and legal rights. If a deed isnt on public records, it doesnt necessarily limit legal rights, as it may exist privately or under different documentation. Consider checking title records or consulting an attorney for specific verification.
