Tax liens -Finding heirs when property owner deceased
I am about to foreclose on an Arizona tax lien where I know the owner is deceased. I've found a few relatives. I saw an obituary I didn't print and now can't find again, but I know the owner died. He didn't have services by his request so I am guessing he might have been a hermit or estranged from family. How can I find if he had a will and then would it not suffice to just contact the executor and serve them the papers? Or do I need to contact each relative and serve papers on each of them? That could get costly. I am doing it all myself, they are low dollar lands in Navajo county. If I can find the funeral home I'm guessing they could tell me who made arrangements. Any recommendations how to proceed? Thanks.

@Karen D. Schiano: check with the Navajo Superior court to see if anyone opened probate.
