Finding multifamily owners

I've been working on creating a database to mail letters to area apartment owners. I look up the physical addresses of apartments and cross reference with the county website. I've been able to source a few, but I'm running into a constant obstacle. It seems some of the apartments, particularly the bigger complexes, list tax mailing addresses of attorneys or property management companies. Has anybody found a way around this obstacle? I also have a similar problem when cold-calling and having to speak to a property manager. I want to get my message straight to the owners!

@Jason A. it is “a blessing and a curse”. If the info would have been easily available there would have been too many people accessing it. I was once told - “The harder it is to get the info, more likely you will succeed once you get it”. 

You can try to get the information from the county assessor public website which shows the owner's name and mailing address and sometimes contact info. You can also try the secretary of state’s website to get the same info. 

Otherwise there are different websites (like propertyshark.com) who may have the info. You could get the list of the different websites if you search BP.
