Caveats

CK Wiki - Notes

As this function doesn't return ownership for items in containers that also inherit ownership from the cell, you have to use the following function: Source

Actor Function GetInheritedOwner(ObjectReference aObj, ObjectReference aContainer)
    Actor owner = aObj.GetActorOwner()
    if !owner
        if aContainer
            owner = aContainer.GetActorOwner()
        endIf
        if !owner
            if aContainer
                owner = aContainer.GetParentCell().GetActorOwner()
            else
                owner = aObj.GetParentCell().GetActorOwner()
            endIf
        endIf
    endIf
    return owner
EndFunction
Actor Function GetInheritedOwner(ObjectReference aObj, ObjectReference aContainer)
    Actor owner = aObj.GetActorOwner()
    if !owner
        if aContainer
            owner = aContainer.GetActorOwner()
        endIf
        if !owner
            if aContainer
                owner = aContainer.GetParentCell().GetActorOwner()
            else
                owner = aObj.GetParentCell().GetActorOwner()
            endIf
        endIf
    endIf
    return owner
EndFunction
