Out-of-state property viewing via video

[Kenji Tominaga]

Hi everyone!

I'm based in NYC and looking to find an investment property in Philadelphia.
Because of the distance, my agent is willing to visiting the property on behalf of me and sends me videos.
He goes into each room and shows me with his commentary, which is helpful.

Because I'm not onsite, I'm not sure if I'm fully understanding the neighborhood, atmosphere or details that I cannot find in the video.
Would you have any tips to ask for, or pay attention to in terms of viewing property via video?

Appreciate your knowledge sharing with me!

You can Amtrak there in under 2 hours.

Take the train and spend a Saturday or Sunday in areas you are considering

Out of state owners not visiting properties and or not meeting their PM’s is on the top 10 list of dumb things to do to lose $ in real estate.

People will go to the store to look at a refrigerator, or appliance but not go to a home they are spending six figures on….
