Finding owner of property?

I have a property in atlanta that the owner has been deceased since 2016 and looks like no relatives. The house has 3 years of unpaid taxes and fines for unpaid rubbish. Nobody lives in the house currently. The home also has no mortgage on it currently. How do I approach finding the person responsible for this home to negotiate a sell?

I would imagine the answer here is probate court or something related directly to the city or public water and sewer companies. Look up next of kin, hire a skiptracer, find the estate owner, call the sheriffs department, ask the neighbors.... etc.

Get creative brotha, good luck.
