previous title holder(s), previous owner(s)
I know this from the web reference cited below; the term as used in real estate does not have the usual meaning, but has to do with the fact that no registration will be accepted by the mortgage registry without the previous owners being sited. This is also borne out by the context, i.e. details of previous sales of the property are given under this heading.

: Thank you so much for clarifying this. Makes much more sense when I read the current real estate sale contract I am currently selling
