When to get a property inspection if purchasing SFH out of state?

[Bryan Tasumi]

When to get a property inspection if purchasing a single-family home (or any property) out of state? I am buying a house in Texas from California. I have several properties in Texas I'm interested in, but I am not sure the timeline I should proceed. Should I book a plane ticket and look at the properties on the same day that I get a property inspection? Can I a whole evaluation of multiple properties I'm interested in in one day? 

I want to decide in as little time as possible since I have a job in California, but I want it to cover all bases so I make the best purchase possible at any given time. 

Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
