Hello! I am interested in an abandoned property. The owner committed suicide inside the house, he lived alone and had no will or children. The property has been abandoned for greater than one year. The auditors website lists the property in tax foreclosure with the original owner (deceased) listed. There is no tax lien on the property, that I can see. The estate went through probate and was assigned to an administrator, I have his name and address. What would be the best way to proceed with acquiring the property? Contact the administrator who is not paying taxes on or taking care of property, and ask to sell? Or attempt to acquire by delinquent tax (heard that is an option but am admittedly not schooled on the subject)?  Thanks!
