Finding Abandoned-Home Home-Owner info in Ontario Canada

I’ve been having a difficult time figuring out how to find the owner’s information for properties I discover while driving for dollars.

The land registry office is supposed to provide this info but Service Ontario locations are closed due to covid and finding the information online get married very confusing if you don’t know where to look/specific searches to conduct.

Can anyone provide me with insight as to how I can get this information??

There are a few abandoned properties I really want to pursue...

    Realtors have access to land registry titles online.  It is a site called Geowarehouse.  This will provide title details yet not any contact info.  It is a  great place to start.

    Thanks Roy, I’ll poke around a bit to see if I know anyone who can help me out from there.

    I'm also interested in this but will take it one step further. If on the land registry you found out the home is owned by a corporation is there any way to find out the people who own the corp?

    If it is a corporation then you can have your lawyer do a search on who owns the corporation and there is a a fee for that search.
