Had anyone ever dealt with a “rogue trustee”?
Good morning BP,
I’ve been driving for dollars and contacted an owner of a house that looked vacant. Initially they were upset with my call but after some talking they opened up about their situation. The owner mentioned the property is vacant but they are unable to sell the property at this moment due to a bad situation with a “rogue trustee”. Has anyone ever dealt with this type of scenario and if so was there anything you did to help the property owner? I was trying to be tactful and respect their privacy so I was unable to get more information on the matter. Although the conversation started out rough, by the end of it the owner thanked me for calling and followed up with a text with their contact info. My plan is to keep in contact with the owner and possibly be able to purchase this property later on. Any advice or comments are appreciated, thanks everyone!
