The owner of a NetworkView is defined by the owner of the NetworkViewID. The owner of a NetworkViewID can't be changed. The owner is set to the peer that creates the ViewID.

Whenever someone calls Network.Instantiate and the instantiated object contains a NetworkView, Unity will automatically create / allocate a ViewID for each NetworkView. Those get send to the other users via RPC. The person that calls Network.Instantiate is automatically the owner of the object.

To create / allocate a ViewID manually you can use Network.AllocateViewID, but you have to take care of distributing it across the Network, usually with RPCs. This would be the only way to "change" the owner after an object has been instantiated.

So in your case just make sure the objects get instantiated by the desired owner.

If you want to change the owner of a NetworkView, you have to use an RPC and send a new NetworkViewID (allocated by the new owner) to everyone and replace the old one. Keep in mind when your prefab contains multiple NetworkViews, you need a new ViewID for each of them.
