How to make an offer on house in probate

[Julie Fall]

Hello,  I am new to this forum and new to investing in real estate.  I've listen to many of the BP Pod cast and find them very informative.   I have heard that "empty" property or property in probate could possible be good to pursue.   There is a house down the street from me that has been empty for approximately 3 yrs now, as the owner has died.  What are my steps from here?   Thanks   ~Julie
