Is this a decent lead?

Hi. I am just starting out as a REI and am still finding my first wholesale deals.  I did find this one junker house in really bad condition. The house is boarded up with signs from the sheriff's office.  It's probably a crack house. I would like to wholesale it. I checked the tax rolls and it is under an investment company name.  Is it worth the effort?  or do I walk away and not waste my time?  I find some of these are also HUD homes and taken over by the government.  I suppose they are condemned homes.  I hate to walk away from money makers.  Advice?

I agree with Bill.  It is always easier to ask than to live with yourself over walking away from a potential deal.
