Who decides if someone has property rights?
Everyone has property rights.
How do you get property in the first place?
First and foremost, you own your body and your mind. You also own anything which you either homestead or create through using your body and mind. Then you own anything which you obtain through voluntary mutual trade, where people trade the things they have homesteaded or created through use of their body and mind.
Also, if there is a dispute, who decides who is right?
The parties themselves at first. Possibly, negotiation via hired representative. Possibly, a third party mediator, arbitrator, court. Lots of options.
Does might make right in this scenario?
Certainly far less than it does today, with immense centralized power subject to demagoguery.
