How can you aquire Vacant or Abandoned Mobile Homes?

Good morning to all. I have recently come across 2 mobile homes that seem to be in very good shape. The doors were locked so I was unable to fully get a look on the inside but from what I could see its in nice shape.

My questions are, how do I go about actually acquiring them when the owners have been gone for a month +. None of the neighbors have seen them nor do they have a contact number for them. Do I need to head to the county tax office?

My second question is, if it is vacant weather in a park or on private land and the electric, sewage and water are all disconnected, do I as an investor pay for all of that to be hooked up again just to make sure everything works? I understand needing to check things thoroughly but would that hookup cost be pretty expensive?

Thank you for any advice, have a very merry xmas everyone!
