Property is promising but listed as not for sale/off market

[Vanessa Castillo]

Hey all, There's a property I've noticed that would be a great fixer upper! But the problem that I've across seems to be that the property is listed as not for sale/ off market. The windows are boarded up and I can recall it being this way for more than a decade (used to live near the area). If it were fixed up, it would definitely add some value to the surrounding area and it wouldn't be as much of an eye soar. I'm curious to know if anyone has had similar situations, like this one mentioned, that caused the property to be off the market for such a significant amount of time? Can a county website give me some more background info on it? And if you have had similar issues, should I just steer clear? Thank you for the continued help! -Vanessa
