The Eyesore from Next Door

Hello,

I have an airbnb that has been doing considerably well in the Atlanta. A big issue however is the home next door. It is.... a dilapidated mess to say the least and needs serious work. I've seen postings on the front door of the property about investors trying to purchase it from the owner numerous times. But clearly the owner just doesn't care because nothing has been done about it for a very long time, I really don't understand why. At one point I had the thought of trying to get into the weeds of the property myself but ultimately decided that it wouldn't be worth it, for me at least.

Anyway, the point is that I want it to not look the way it does lol. It's an eyesore for guests staying at my property and makes the neighborhood not look good. In actuality, I think it poses a safety risk to the neighborhood. I've seen things like young kids hanging out there and even people using it as a dump zone.

What are my options with this property next door?
