If you know the region they live in, many counties in the US now let you search property records by name from a simple web form.

Most Texas counties put all their residents' complete, real-time information out there with zero impediments to scraping and wholesale harvesting. Appraisal value, tax payment and tax status, mailing address, full legal name, and phone number. Basically a scammer, stalker, and data broker goldmine.
