Property tax question

I am a Florida renter of 7 years and my neighbor who ‘owned’ her home next to me died four months ago. I called the police for a welfare check at the end of July and never heard anything back. Turns out she had already died back in May.

So now the county just contracted a mowing company to mow her overgrown yard.. Now I’m wondering what will happen to the house. It would be a beautiful little home for my wife and I and I was wondering if there was any kind of ‘insider’ way of going about purchasing it. I would be a first time homebuyer.

I dont know the true status of the payments of the home but I know that she didn’t have any family members and was frankly a very rude woman. I imagine that her accounts are now four months behind as she didn’t have family to take over those affairs. Does anyone here know what the logical next steps are? I heard something from a family member about paying the property taxes on it but Im so clueless about this stuff. This maybe isn’t even the correct sub for this question?

Any help would be massively appreciated and could potentially change my family’s life.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Question With Tricon "Pending ID".....

My wife and i, along with 2 other peopl applied to rent a house, and our application says "Approved, Pending ID". Anyone else know what that means? Do we pretty much have the place or are we missing something? submitted by /u/Itskrueger [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1orixqj/question_with_tricon_pending_id/

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
