For example, providing the clerk and recorder's office a certified copy of the deceased birth certificate? 

@Jorge Magana Welcome to Bigger PocketsI recently opened my own office and work with investors.

The basement looks fine, its tiny and theres only a furnace down there.  

Re-key the office or common areas2.

With the help of my real estate attorney, I contacted someone in the city office (can't remember what department), explained that property was vacant and acquired through tax sale, and received a refund of about $1000.

I work completely independently from my home office. 

I've worked in a law office where we have dealt with evictions.

Put them at a desk in your office...give them a calls made tracking sheet.
