Forwarding Address Search

Hey BP Community!

I closed on my first duplex a couple weeks ago and as part of our closing agreement the sellers had to get the previous tenants out before closing. That all went well but come to find out the tenants left an inoperable car in the driveway. I am trying to find their forwarding address so I can notify the ex tenant that the car will be towed if they don't retrieve it.

Any bright ideas on how to get this forwarding address? I've already contacted the property management company but said they couldn't give it to me, citing "privacy act" laws. The duplex is in Virginia.

ex tenants have already demonstrated lack of concern.  If you own the property then notify local law enforcement.  They will run the vehicle tag/vin and issue an order of compliance and maybe even have it towed for you.  Presently, the vehicle is abandoned property.
