Deceased owner
Okay, anyone, I have located a vacant house and my search has confirmed that the owner and his only relative are both deceased. The property is two years behind on taxes and counting. Does the state take possession at some time or is there a legal way to pursue ownership? If it goes into tax foreclosure would the county be able to auction it then? I of course would prefer to secure the property before a tax auction would occur.

Why not consult legal counsel. State laws vary.
