Is there any reason not to do this or anything I need to be cautious of in the process? 

Even though I am able to negotiate down the purchase price, I am afraid of the bank not giving my tenant buyer the loan later on.I want to add an appraisal in the process of dealing with the prospective seller, but I'm not sure what the best way to do this is.

We are currently in the process of closing on this  property.

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.
