Etiquette for contacting tax delinquent absentee owner

[Jim Herbst]

A particular absentee owner who is delinquent on his taxes has no forwarding address listed on the auditor's website.  This owner has had several other properties fall into foreclosure in the past 6 months.  A quick google search took me to a linkedin profile which contained the owner's corporate email address.

1.) Would it be appropriate to contact this owner via email at their place of employment to gauge their interest in selling the property?

and

2.) How would you go about starting such a conversation?

Your responses are always greatly appreciated!
