I can not find the owner of these homes ...

I have found some properties in my target area (Bergen County) that seem to be abandoned / dilapidated.  I have skip traced and had no luck getting usable contact information ( on two separate platforms), they are either owner occupied vacant or non owner occupied with PO Box or company name. I can not find any information on companies from the State Sec of State website. They do not seem to be bank owned as yet and we all know how long that takes to hit back the market once the bank takes it. How can I reach whoever is the owner of the properties so that I can release them from their burden lol.

 Please help with any tips or guidelines you have to help me take the next step.

@Cheryl Moore skip tracing is a way to search for someone using different touch points from the information given. I generally give the address of a home and in doing so, I would get back a name of the perceived owner,  along with a few numbers and emails associated with that address. Sometimes it brings me gold, but sometimes it's just coal. lol
