Finding Owners of Distressed/Vacant Properties when nothing appears on the County Auditor's Website

I drove for dollars and I have a list of of addresses.  I went to the county auditors/tax assessor's website to find the owners.  I've ran into a couple of properties that are not listed on the county auditors website or google for that matter.  I was able look on google maps to find the property, but no other information was listed.  My question, how do i find the owners for these properties if their is no data trail on the county auditors website?  one property is a single family and the other is an apartment.  any insight is greatly appreciated.

I pay $45 per mo. for property radar and $28 per month for Rebo gateway by benuteach I found both as a referral from my title rep at first American title, our success is 95%.

To speak more to what I'm doneing, we are developing a "FARM" I do the same type of drive for dollars type of thing only I want people to be living in the home.   Then I will drop yellow notes, direct mail, postcards, anything I can come up with to get a response .  This is my plan to not have to compete with so many other buyers.

The exclusive seller is what I'm looking for, the more distressed the property is the better. My thinking is if its that hammered and the sellers perception is they have no choices but me..... well that will be a great negotiation!

Good luck

Jim
