Good evening.
First time poster here and I'm going to start with a question.
I bought my hillside homestead four years ago. The guy I purchased it from told me at that time that the acre and a half next door to me might be available. He told me it was part of an estate and that it is not buildable (probably not big enough) and that someone is just sitting on it, paying the taxes.
Now, I don't know how accurate that information is but in the four years I've lived here, I have not once seen anyone set foot on the property.
I can find out who owns it from the County Assessor.
My question(s) are:
Will the owner information I get from the county include an address?
And, what would be the best way to approach a stranger to express an interest in buying this property?
I planned on writing a letter but would it be better to pay an attorney fifty bucks (or more?) to approach the owner via a letter?
Thanks.
