Abondoned house
I found a house that looks abandoned, can't find the home owner of the property, was wondering if you guys had any clue on how I can find this person?, I search the property tax records and found a name but other than that the address on file is the same as the house, went I saw the house it looked like mail had not been collected for weeks, grass is pretty high up and according to what a neighbor said it has been abandoned

You said you searched the property tax for a name, are the taxes being paid?
If so, whose paying them?
If not, there are probably tax liens on the property.
Hopefully the owner is not deceased inside. That's happened on more than one occasion from news reports I've seen in the past. Just in general.
