Possible deal?

[Ezra Tingler]

Hello all,

I have a question that perhaps you guys may have some insight into.  I have been driving past this one property almost everyday for over a year on my way to work and it looks bad.  But I see huge potential.  Its a great location and with a little TLC could be awesome.  It appears to be totally abandoned, and has an old shed in back that looks to have been broken into.  How do I go about determining the owner and convincing them to sell it to me.  I have checked my local tax website and can't seem to locate the owner there.  Should my next move be to call the tax accessors office?

Thanks,

Ezra Tingler
