Here’s the context:The house appears vacant, with a large tree that has fallen on the property.From what I can see, the house seems full of furniture and might even be a hoarder home.I’ve skip-traced the property and found that the owner has unfortunately passed away.The house seems to be mortgage-free, and I’ve identified three phone numbers associated with the son, who I believe is the heir.I’d like to reach out to the son to express my interest in purchasing the property, but I want to ensure I do so respectfully while also gathering the right information.Here are my questions:What’s the best way to approach the heir while showing my condolences for their loss?

Can anyone recommend sources for contact information for property owners?

I wish all the STR owners luck.

@Venka Pulla Many smaller PMCs are unprofessional, they can also be vindictive.So, suggest you get all the info you can from your Owner Portal before terminating them.Also, hire a new PMC BEFORE terminating the current PMC.Then, terminate and work closely with the new PMC to get tenant payments switched over and whatever documentation is missing.Hopefully, you'll screen for a new PMC better than you did to pick the current one!

They were referrals and the business started to grow simply because I had a competent team that was responsive and looked out for the owners' best interests.

Ask to speak with some of their current owners and current/former tenants.

What question should one of these home owners ask?  

You pay a higher price for beautiful properties because you are competing with owner occupants. 

Business owners won't want to get tied up in litigation and if there is a good chance they will lose, it is easier to simply follow the contract.How would that work with a lower-end tenant? 

As a PM, I'm authorized to make emergency repairs without owner permission.
