is an abandoned home a zoning issue? whats the reason for not being able check on the property? This property i drove by has been vacant for some time now. But google maps, zillow or any property finding source isnt giving me the address to the property. Its not written anywhere. what's the deal? should i just leave it alone or do what i can to find out.

Ok. Then use the triangulation method. 

Look up a neighboring property with a good address. Pull up the assessor's plat map and, using a process of elimination, identify properties on that map that you can correlate and the remaining parcel will be the one that sticks out.

Then use APN to see who assessor is trying to tax and then county RECORDER to chain title ownership and equity.

If you complain that it's too much work I'll that you in advance as it'll probably make its way into my acquisition funnel at some point anyway. Good luck and may the most dedicated and persistent Hunter win!
