Out of state investors: property visits via agents

[Romain Nguyen]

Hi all, 

As a new out of state investor looking to do buy and hold, I was wondering what you typically ask your agent to check and report on when visiting the property. For example: take photos of the property and neighborhood, search for major repairs to do in the house (e.g. electrical system), etc. 

Thanks a lot for your advice, and have a great weekend, 

Romain
