You can't just move into empty deserted buildings and start using them, even if you do manage to contact the owners. They can be fraught with all manner of dangers. Why are they empty in the first place? Is there damage which could pose a danger to anyone using the building? Have you taken legal advice regarding your liability if anyone is hurt in the building? What about simple things like basic buildings insurance? Supposing a slate falls off and hits a passer by? Would it be your problem or the owners?
