Finding Absentee Owners

[Jocelyn Thompson]

Hello,

Can someone please share with me how you find absentee owners or owners that do not live in the city and or state where their property is located.

I would like to start mailing once a week to absentee owners and probate executors.

Thank You

You can use a list broker like melissadata or listsource. Or, use the county records. Many counties have them online and you can get the data for free, though not in a very usable form. You basically search through the records for the area you're farming for properties where the owner's address is out of the area. Just depends on whether you have time or money.
