Hi Trey I don't know about Tennessee, but her in CA you can go to a couple of different place, all at the county level. You can go to the tax collectors office with the address and they should be able to give you the contact info for the last owner, or tell you the name of the lien holder if that whats up with the property, Also the clerk recorders office has all the property files in there office and usually updates daily and can tell you step by step what happening to the property and give you names and address as contact info, other than that you could pay a skip tracer it's not what they normally do but they should be able to find out most anything you need to know about the property, Just depends on how badly or quickly you want to find out the needed info. Have you gone and knocked on neighbors doors sometimes they have contact info that will get you right to the owners, Theres a bunch of legit reason why a place would be empty. Best of luck to you
