I spotted an empty house in my city as well as the owner's name but I wonder if there is a public record that can tell me if the owner is alive or dead. Is there a method or a system on how to find these properties lists

Dee,
The first thing I would check would be the county assessors site to see where the tax bill goes to if you haven't already done so, and then contact them at that address if it's different then the house you found. It could be a rental that's vacant....or owned by someone out of state...you never know.
