There is a house that I am interested in which has been vacant for some time now. I would like to know what's the best way to find out who the owner of the home would be. I did try to check the online County Recorders website for tax payments etc but it doesn't show any owner names. Please advise thanks!

@Varinder Kumar If you're doing direct mail along with driving for dollars, then I would wait until you have a lot of property owners that you can skip trace at once. I found that this prevented me with getting fixated with locating only one property owner and also increased the chance of a response. A lot of the free or paid services that allow simple registration are not have poor data. I do like using on free service that has updated addresses. Check out Family Tree Now; I've had luck finding relatives and updated addresses for them.
