Driving for deals....trying to contact absentee owners

Good morning all For the past couple of months I've been driving around the area in which I grew up in on the northeast side of town. I've found several high grass and boarded up homes in which I've researched the owners tax information in order to a contact address. I've sent out several letters to the contact addresses with no responses as of yet. Do any of you guys have any ideas of a more effective ways of contacting owners vs mailing letters? Maybe like a skip trace system of getting phone numbers???

Make sure their mailing add is the same or different. Mail them.

Try to find out their contact number, call or message them. 

Try to find out their relative's contact, reach them.

Talk to their neighbors, find out the contact.
