Abandoned Property
We drove by a house (driving for dollars) that appears to be abandoned, and it is in a decent neighborhood where we were looking at other properties. I looked up the owner, and after searching online, traced the LLC name and address back to Vesta Properties. http://vestaholdings.com/vesta/index.asp It appears they purchased the tax lien, but they were also listed as the property owner (I'm not sure if that is what automatically happens when you purchase a tax lien?).
Anyway, we were interested in contacting the owner to see if they want to sell, but now knowing this is a major company that invests in tax liens, what do you think? Do they typically want to sell the properties? I don't know enough about tax liens to know what the next move is.
