What does it mean if Mortgage Broker is listed as property owner?

I'm just starting my Real Estate search and decided to try to find who owned a vacant looking, distressed property near where I am currently living. I got the name (just a name) from the city, and from a little bit of internet digging I'm pretty sure I found the guy. He appears to be a mortgage broker. 

A) How do I confirm I have the right person? 

and 

B) What does it mean if a Mortgage Broker is listed as property owner?

Thanks,

Adam
