Find the owner. Once you find the vacant, ugly house, you need to find out who owns it. Obviously, they're not living there now so how do you find them? There are several ways you can use. You can hire a skip tracer who will find the owner for a fee. You can ask the neighbors. Or my personal favorite; you can check the tax records. Go to your local county tax assessor and they will let you use their computer to search by address and find the seller.
Contact the owner. Now that you've found the owner, you can contact him in one of two ways. First, you can call him. I personally don't like this method; it's too much like "cold calling" and no one likes to be called at home. I prefer to send a letter. You already have his personal residence from the tax roll, so mail him a simple handwritten letter telling him that you want to buy his house and asking him to call you. Don't use a window envelope (it looks too much like a bill!). Just a standard envelope (handwritten) so it looks like a letter from Grandma (it guarantees that he'll open it).
