Travis County Probate List

Hi everyone, I'm attempting to get in contact with distressed sellers via the travis county probate list but the layout of the list is a bit confusing. Each name has a different case status, case type and a name of an attorney. I'd imagine contacting someone regarding a property that they most likely inherited from a recently deceased loved one would be a difficult conversation for anyone, so I don't want to make it any worse by cold calling someone when it may still be in dispute. Any information would be appreciated and if you have extensive success with buying properties off the probate list then I'd love to speak on the phone and/or meet for lunch. Thanks in advance!

Get comfortable being uncomfortable.  I can't think of any positive reasons for a property to end up on a probate list so all of the conversations are going to be challenging.
