Question

How can I find the legal name of a business and/or property owner if I only have address information?

Answer 1

You can find info on business from your State's Department of Corporations (they will have a name similar to that) and you can find property owners by using the state, or county, tax records. All are on the web for your State and all of it is Public Record.

Answer 2

Check with the Better Business Bureau

Answer 4

for a property:   contact the county recorder office in the county of which it is located - ask them to please give you the owner name and address - i have gone this route in the past when seeking the information to ask if they were interested in selling.

for a business: i forget the name of the office at the county court house that does this ...  it is the one that handles the "doing business as" registerations.  if you call the county recorder office first about the property question, let them know of the other .. and they can probably connect you to that office as well.
