And how did the North supposedly own this property that was part of another sovereign State?

Sumter was not the joint property of the U.S. and South Carolina. Such a relationship would be unconstitutional since Article I, Section 8 says that Congress will exercise sole legislative authority over forts. Even if the South Carolina act of secession was legal, that did not automatically transfer control to them of property that belonged to the federal government. Sumter was the property of the federal government and South Carolina had no claim to it.
"And how did the North supposedly own this property that was part of another sovereign State?"
"Own" might not be the correct word, but Federal money was used to purchase (from Spain and France) the land which comprised many of the Confederate States that were not part of the original 13 colonies. Federal resources (blood and treasure) were used before the Civil War to defeat lingering Mexican claims to Texas. Federal resources were also used to purchase land in the South from Indian tribes and to "relocate" them.
