Have now no beginning or end (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

own

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'have' is the definition.
(to have something is to own it)

'now no beginning or end' is the wordplay.
'now' anagrams to 'OWN'.
However, I'm not sure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for own that I've seen before include "Control" , "Be in legal possession of (3)" , "Possess or confess" , "Possess - recognise - admit" , "Keep" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
