More details to this question:
My friend'said neighbor passed away a few years ago, and the house has been sitting vacant ever since. I found out from another neighbor that the owner had left the house to his ex girlfriend in his will, but she has never wanted anything to do with it. How do I find out how to get ahold of her to ask her if I can buy it from her?

Have you sent a letter to the house?  maybe she collects the mail from time to time.  Was an estate opened for the owner?  If he did leave her the house in his will and an estate was opened, the register of wills likely has her name and address.  Was the deed changed to her name?  You could go to the recorder of deeds or the tax assessment office and check to see the name on the deed or county records and an address for communication.
