Interpretation of PROP_OWNEROCC Field in Verisk Property Dataset

I'm working with the Property dataset from Verisk and I came across the field PROP_OWNEROCC.

The only populated value is 'Y', which appears in about 77% of the records.

The remaining 23% of entries are missing (blank).

I’m trying to understand whether the absence of 'Y' implies that the property is not owner-occupied — i.e., potentially a rental property. But I’m unsure if that’s a safe assumption.

Any clarification or pointers to Verisk documentation would be much appreciated!
