Persuing a property when owner is elderly
There is a neglected property in my area that could be a great investment. When I contacted the owner I was made aware that they are 97 and not in any condition to speak to me about the property (care giver told me). Is it in bad taste to make another attempt? Is there a way to contact the POA?

To be clear there is no one living on the property Im interested in. Its a neglected piece of commercial real estate that hasnt seen action in at least 4 years. I found the owner thru the county records and knocked on the door. Care giver says No hablo. So I call a number from white pages .com and get another no hablo but this time Im two days into my Rosetta Stone tapes and I respond accordingly. Quierro comprar!! Quierro comprar!!
She says in perfect spanglish. Owner is 97. No talk on phone and call back thursday to speak w mija. I responded in perfect spanglish "ok. Hasta"
