Boarded-up Houses in Canada

[Clarke Gallie]

Hello all investors and real estate lovers! 

I am a Canadian BP member and have been studying real estate for sometime and have recently came across a old run-down boarded up house in a prime location. I asked the neighbors and they say the house has been abandoned since they can remember. The property is located in the Windsor Region, ON and there is multiple notices on the door with information of the home owner residing in Toronto. I have tried to contact him but have had no luck, he never answers the phone nor emails. I would really love to buy this property, and wholesale the lot (house should probably be torn down from what I'm hearing). Open to all suggestions as I am out of ideas of what to do! 

Thank you BP members,
