Vacant property help
I have tracked down a single family that I am interested in purchasing. I have located the county records showing an owner at a different address. I am comfortable reaching out to the owner, but I am confused on something.
In the front window there are documents posted from MCS - Mortgaging Contract Services, stating that the property is vacant and has been winterized, and to call their number for any maintenance concerns. It explicitly says that they are unable to provide any sale information. After looking at the MCS website's it appears that they are acting as a property maintenance manager.
Does this mean that the property is actually bank owned rather than the individual on the city's tax record? And therefore I should not contact them? This is my first time ever dealing with a vacant property.
