Home someone died in... what should I know?

There’s a home in our neighborhood sitting empty. Rumor has it that a gentleman passed away in the home sometime this past year and didn’t seem to have family local. I’m thinking it could be a “distressed property” to target.

What should I know about any challenges for this situation? Would I need to disclose history to future buyers or renters?

Youll want to make sure that the dead mans spirit has passed on and that he isnt currently haunting the house. If it is haunted, just call in a ghost exterminator, specifically I recommend Ghostbusters
