Finding apartment owners in Cleveland/Cuyahoga County

I'm starting to poke around with the idea of starting out in the multifamily space with apartment investing. There are a decent amount of apartments in solid neighborhoods near where I live and near where I work. I'm looking for off-market deals as the MLS, loopnet, etc. will likely not fit criteria. So my question is how do I actually find and contact a property owner if I see a property that interests me?

I know how to look up the property info and get the owner's name from the Cuyahoga County property search but once I have the name of the owner, how do I find out where they actually live or some kind of contact information?  The only addresses I've been able to find are with the associated property and nothing about where the tax bills are sent or any other owner info. I'd love to reach out to some local apartment owners, build a relationship, and someday perhaps purchase a property before it hits the market from them or someone they know who is selling?
