How to get contact information on a property not for sale?

Question

There was a property that was on the market in New Jersey, but was taken off. Was not sold. Any ideas on how to get a contact name/ phone number for the owner to see if they want to sell? It was for sale but I believe they had an issue with the tenant and took it off the market. Any help would be appreciated!

The best way to find the property owner is going to be through skip tracing them. The best skip tracing tools use credit bureau level data and has the flexibility to do a single skip or a batch.

In this case, as long as you have the property address, you'll get a few data points you can use to reach them -- whether that's through calling them, texting them, email or mail.

Thank you all! I found some public records/tax info online and found the owners name. Then found him on facebook and messaged him, we are now under contract for a 2 unit property! If there's a will there's a way!! Thanks again!

@Michael Carman Hey Michael! You can try googling “NJ PROPERTY OWNER” the website is njpropertyrecords.com, and with this website you’ll be able to look up the address and it’ll give you the owner name/address on file. You can simply send out a letter to them or door knock and ask them if they’d be interested in selling their property.

Best of luck!

@Michael Carman I've done tax searches in the past with some success. The owner's name and address (if different from the investment property) are listed. You can also try NJ Parcels.

Best of luck.

You could find the owner through public records and then run their name through White pages or a similar program for free.

PropStream. It’s a pricey tool but you can use the 7 day free trial. Enter the address, find the owner and their contact info BOOM! Good luck

You could download deal machine app on your phone and type in the address to the “lead” search bar and once you find the property choose to skip trace the owner and it will give you the owners phone number and email
