Abandoned Property and Finding the Owner in NJ

[Nick Intrieri]

Hey All, 

Spotted an abandoned property on the Jersey (NJ) shore and I was wondering the best way to find & contact the owner to scout a potential deal. It has a REMAX sign up but when I called and inquired about it, it seems as if it is now unlisted. Can't find it on REMAX website either. 

What's the best way to go about contacting the owner? Direct Mail? How do I find the owner's address? Newbie here and looking for any wisdom anyone is willing to offer. Thanks in advance!!

First thing to do is check the tax records to see where the owner may be living now. You can check this at njactb.org

If the same address is listed then you will have to do some extra digging. Try the tax records before you have to move further.
