delinquent tax property

Ok if I'm at the court house looking at public records  for delanquent tax properties what information  would I be looking for? Or is there  some other place I should be looking. Trying to build a mailing list doing the work myself. Also open to any other mailing niche where I can do my own work in creating the list. I did driving for dollars an my response rate  has been  pretty good for me.I just want to keep building on the momentum if that doesn't sound crazy. Thanks in advance  for any input.

Ask the county for a list of delinquent properties. Some counties may charge a fee but it is worth the price. You get so much useful information in the list they provide.

The list may have 4000 properties like my county would have.

One useful thong you can sift through at the county office is if the certified letters where signed for or if they came back in received.

This may indicate an owner that the county can't locate to inform them they may be losing their property. The County will only send the letters to the best k own adress and then they will post a sign on the property if the certified letters are not signed for.

The best use of your time is driving by the houses once you do have the list.
