Realty Management

How do I find out if my landlord is the true owner of the house I’m renting from him?
I’m actually renting half of a house from a family. The husband of the family had us sign a typed lease that stated the rules of the studio that I’d be renting. It also stated how much my deposit and rent would be. Recently, my landlord has told me that he is going to be buying another house in a neighboring town closer to his job. He said that will continue to own the house that I live in, but that he will rent out his half of the house through a realty management company. The realty company will find prospective tenants and screen them, and also collect rent. I have been paying my rent in cash directly to the landlord and getting hand-written & signed receipts per the landlord’s wishes. The landlord says I would continue to pay rent directly to him. Lately, I’m nervous about what will happen if the landlord is not the real owner, vacates the property and leaves me occupying the house seemingly as a squatter. I do not want to be burned. What should I do, and what are my rights?
Call the county accesors office and ask them if you can have the real (as in real estate) property owner .Give them the address of property .Tell them you need it for some kind of civil proceedings . Its public record and you might get it on line or you may have to go to the county clerks office for it.But its there for your taking.
Good luck
