Driving for Dollars help in Philadelphia

So I'm pretty new to the driving for dollars process and I understand it is different in different cities, so I figured I'd explain what I've done and where I'm confused. I've been driving and looking at a few houses in Philadelphia, Pa that show potential to be fixer uppers (example, no one puts out trash on trash day), but when I search using the tax tool (https://property.phila.gov/?p=351207900) it shows the owner lives at the listed property. I'm unsure what the next step is to try and contact the actual owner of the property, assuming the owner no longer lives at the listed property and has moved somewhere else. My main thing here is to learn what the steps are even if it means losing this particular deal to another investor. Is there someone who can help me with what the next step is in this process. Thanks in advance.
