How To Get Information On A Boarded Up House?

Would I go to the town to find out the owners name and number? Can I find out the taxes owed while I am there?

    Go to your county's real estate tax assessor's office. They should be able to give you the owner's name and mailing address, assuming that you know the address of the property in question. You will have to look up their phone number yourself.

    If you cannot get the information at the county tax assessors office. Knock on neighbors doors and ask if they know who the owner is and how to get in contact. Also while at the courthouse check the probate office,the house could be part of an estate.

    Go to the county tax assessor's office and see where the tax bill is sent and who is paying them. Chances are that someone that is paying the taxes have control of the property.

    Save yourself time....

    1) Get online
    2) Look for that particular county's propery appraiser. Search by address. The info returned will includes owner of record and appraised value plus other info.
    3) Next do a public records search for that county with the owners name. This could show liens, deeds and legal actions against the owner.

    Most counties in the U.S. now have this info online. Hope this helps
