Homeowner in Prison!

ok so my wife and I are buy and hold investors and we are getting ready for another acquisition, We saw a house 2 doors down from our duplex and saw long grass, no movement ect... Found out the lady was just put in prison for theft earlier this year?!? I do know she inherited the house and owns it free and clear.

How do I contact her to buy? Can she sell? Is there any special considerations or laws concerning an incarcerated homeowner?

Thanks for any info BP

Send her a letter at the prison, or a phone call, to set up a visitation. Perfect seller!
