Morphology
The meaning is directly compositional: an 'owner' of 'property' is someone who possesses property, so a B1 learner who knows both words will infer this refers to a person who owns (including digital) assets. This follows a common noun + noun/possessive pattern found across languages and requires no idiomatic knowledge, so it is immediately understandable.
Etymology
Property owner puts together property (things like land or a house) and owner (the person who has them). Picture someone standing by their house with keys and a paper deed — that clear image explains why it means 'a person who legally owns land or real estate'.
