Elsa:
However, we have seen that House Elves can be (unlike fixed real 
property) shifted from one location to another. A freed House Elf can 
shift to another location, for example. I believe if Harry takes up 
residence in a different house (he really doesn't seem keen on living 
at 12 GP) Kreacher would still be his. If he took Kreacher to his new 
home, I don't think ownership of Kreacher would transfer if he sold 12 
GP.
