How to purchase property when owner is deceased?

[TJ Maxberry]

Hey BP family,

I have a piece of property a client is interested in but the owner is deceased and the children are hard to get in touch with. What's the best method for approaching this situation? 

In Lexington, KY. Thanks in advance!

Hi @TJ Maxberry, this sounds like a probate situation. Depending on when the owner passed and state laws, you might have to go through a legal representative.

I would contact a local probate attorney to see the proper way to handle this situation.

Hope this helps! Let me know if I can be of any assistance.
