Morbid question... buying dead peoples houses

[Kyle Plants]

Not sure if wholesaling is really the appropriate category for this topic. Anyways, I’ve been thinking about how I want to start finding some single family and multi family homes to invest in a buy and hold Strategy. One idea I was thinking about is getting to know some local funeral homes and inquiring with them if the have customers that might have a relative that has passed and has a house that the family wants to get rid of. Maybe a funeral home might not be the best, maybe an agent. Has anyone ever done this? If so, what method was effective?

@Kyle Plants it’s called probate, your county courthouse should keep some sort of record. Some cases don’t make it to court, in that case mailing obituaries, asking estate sales or funeral homes for referrals are not bad ideas. It’s whatever you can stomach
