How to find distressed property owners?

While driving for dollars I noticed a few homes that looked distressed. I wrote down the addresses an looked them up on my tax accessor website. The owner wasn't a absentee owner so I ruled out the fact of me mailing him a postcard. An with the property be distressed I looked it up an zillow an thought about contacting a realtor but I was wondering if there are any other ways to contact a owner of a distressed property if the owners not a absentee owner.

 Hi Chad 

Our company specializes I'm distressed property I have purchased 2 difforent distressed properties in the last 3 weeks.  I know it's the best way for an investor to buy homes.  The reason is simple, the built in urgency the foreclosure brings to the deal. Become an expert and you will be rewarded handsomely, don't let some nay sayer tell you it's over.  Talk to long term investors, you will hear the real story with them.  Learn the tricks of the trade and enjoy working with people that really need your help.  We typically start out with clients in tears and not sure what will happen to them and end with people restarting there life with are help.  Call me anytime if you need help
