Drive around for dollars

[Alvaro Rodriguez]

After driving around, I have found some houses that seem to be like they are abandoned. How can I find the owner of that property if nobody is in the house? Where do I find their address or contact information?

Also, aside for driving around what other way can I find deals?

Thank you

Depending on where you live, you should be able to find it on public record. My mom is a realtor so she can search the address and find the name and last known address usually. I would maybe find a realtor in your network who might be able to get those names for you. Otherwise you can use something called skip tracing to track them down, I’ve never done this. Other than driving for dollars, direct mail seems to be something a lot of people do. You get a service that finds vacant/old/distressed properties for you and send them a letter, email, or get their number to call.
