Hello,I am in the process of analyzing deals.

Too many things require boots on the ground while you are getting to know the process. 

I like your thought process and strategy, especially just getting started.  

What documents would I need from the heirs on both sides to "sign off" or to make the process go smoother through the attorney?

I want to go under contract just need the details on how to back out if everything doesn’t check during the inspection process.

We’re not sure what “seized” means.....typically if it is scheduled for a sale, the taxes can always be paid up until the sale, with possible redemption rights afterwards.You need a clearer understanding of the process, your title co. will know what to do.

I think the process if you can't find them is put an ad in the local paper and send a certified letter to the last known address.

We're going through the same process right now and are inclined to create one LLC per property with a Corp as controlling entity.Even though some states do not require you to register the entity on that state (in Ohio is preferably but not mandatory for example), if you would to have any legal issues, you would need to be registered to conduct business in that state.

If you could somehow locate the law firm handling the probate process maybe you could work out a deal.Since it is being auctioned at a tax auction then it probably means nobody has been maintaining the property since the owner died so it will be in bad shape.

Decided to stop the wholesaling process.
