Check the county tax records online. Then start looking on whitepages.com or any other people search service.
If it's still owned by a person (and not a bank owned foreclosure) you may have some luck.
If it's a bank owned, you'll have to buy it when they list in on the MLS.
Why would the city condemn a house that doesn't have anything wrong with it. Sounds like you need more information.Steve Howe - REALTOR - RE/MAX Advantage Plus

the city condemed the house because nobody was living there and it was blight. I also looked in the county records and that is how I found who owned the property. the property might come up at the next tax sale. the owner owes back taxes on the property.
