Contacting a family trust
I found house that has definite potential, but when I looked it up on the county tax assessors site it says it's owned by "John Smith Family Trust" (not person's actual name).
What exactly does this mean (I'm assuming "John" died and the house is now owned by the trust, but who specifically do I contact) and how would this affect my buying it?
