No one is around to ask, maybe county tax records, but there is no address just 10 or more acres on the side of the road Thx [IMG] http://i1227.photobucket.com/albums/ee428/Texasrustriders/truckinfield.jpg[/IMG]

People usually know at least something about what's going on at neighbor's properties. You could do the county tax records thing but that probably won't give you enough "real" info that you need. Good luck!

You'll likely have to pay a nominal fee but they have the ownership records of every property in the county. I've obtained records locally several times.

54-5-window I hear you, my friend runs a towing company and if I could find the owner maybe I could talk to him about removing that eye sore for free "wink-wink"

However, if the property has a 911 address on a post or find the nearest 911 address and the appraisal district can give you the name of the owner of the land. Many counties have free searchable records on the internet. However, if you are in Grayson County, its not free, but the appraisal office can help you. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 11 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Dec 2010 Posts: 11 | Thanks for that info, yes I'm in Grayson County and will follow up on the 911 address, great idea

If you can't get information online through your Appraisal District (Some counties have free record search). By all means go by their office.
Another option besides asking neighbors might be hopping that fence to see if there's a set of tags to trace to the previous owner... risk getting shotgun pellets in yer backside! ha.
Good luck!
