How to find owners name and address on abandoned property?

[Vincent Q.]

Hi BP,

There is a recently abandoned property in my neighborhood. It was a rental. Was wondering how do I go about finding the owners address, name, telephone # as I would like to contact the owner and buy it for a rental property.

Can anyone share how they went about doing this?

Thanks

I downloaded the dealmachine app and signed up for basic service and then I drove around and selected the properties I wanted and paid to get the name/address/phone of the owner. Works out for many properties but they can't find everybody, you don't pay for the ones they can't find

I think BiggerPockets has a deal with them for a discount somewhere, highly recommended if you don't have the time to get to the assessor.
