What to do when you know the owner is deceased?
So, I started using DealMachine this weekend. I put a local house into the app and it told me that it was owner occupied. It was apparent that this was wrong. After pulling the tax records on the house, it appears that the owner died and it is managed by the estate, but quickly falling into disrepair. I want to start a mailer campaign, but I'm not sure how to proceed. How would you address the mailer? I don't want to address it directly to the deceased. Do I use "The Estate of xxxx" or something along those lines? Something completely different? Would the mail typically be forwarded to the executor? Is there some way to find a direct line to the executor if not? Anything else I should know/be sensitive to? Any advice would be appreciated.
