Creative Ways for Contacting the Owner of an Abandoned Home
BP, I need your help. Long story short there is an abandoned home that I have found that I would like to purchase to fix and flip. This is what I have done so far:
- Went to the county and found the owners
- Found that the the owner still has their taxes sent to the abandoned home
- Wrote them a letter to said abandoned home telling them of my interest to purchase the home
So right now I'm in the waiting game to hopefully hear back from them. My questions to you all is if my letter idea does not work out, what other ways could I try to reach the owners? I only figure this house is abandoned because the exterior is beat up and unkempt and the inside of the home I can see the blinds rotting away. Let me know what you all think!
Cheers,
Mike
