Hi everyone,I have been sending out condolence cards to probate leads and I had a call back yesterday. 

Apparently they don't work but thanks for your keen condolences anyway.

(Upstairs tenants inform me that the mother who lives with them in the unit has passed away) I give my condolences, and they tell me that they did get the tax money but all the funeral expense and everything is so expensive and they are still waiting for the mothers life insurance to pay out...April 5th is now here  and my money is not.  

If you do use it consider adding condolences and sympathy in wording of the letter..

They’re probably still dealing with the insurance company for a settlement and figuring out what happens next.Now would be a good time to offer your condolences and ask them to contact you if they decide to sell the property as is and move on ASAP.

I offer condolences, let them know I'm an investor who pays cash and that I can close quickly hassle-free. 

We passed along our condolences. 

(Condolences to you and your family).You haven't mentioned how much they rent out for, or the HOA fees?

It's handwritten so you think it's from someone offering sincere condolences; however, it's from an investor asking to buy the house.
