buying property in a trust

[Arcinio Arauz]

I found a house that is under distress. Owners owe 15k in back taxes and the house needs a little work. The current owner is the trustee as the former owner (her mother) passed away. A neighbor told me that he wanted to buy it from the trustee but the trustee says she can't sell because it's in a trust. It's going up for a tax deed sale in two weeks and I want to buy it. I looked at records and saw no liens, mortgages or judgments. The current owner is indeed the only trustee (records). How can I convince her that she can sell the property.
