Approaching not very neighborly neighbor/hoarders about selling

Hi BP community,

I am considering approaching a homeowner with an offer to buy their place. It's obviously a hoarder house and the owner and others who 'live' there are not exactly the kindest folk. I have made deals in the past where I contact the owner directly and actually enjoy that approach, but this one seems a little iffy. I would like to buy their place partly for REI and partly because I want to see them gone. I wonder if it'll be worth the trouble regardless of the great deal I get and wonder if there is more care I could take in approaching them with an offer. I have no knowledge about their need or desire to move yet, but am betting that if I present them with a wad of cash that they would take it. I also have to find the wad of cash. :)

Keith
