Do you look in person every property you offer on? (MLS)
Hello everyone,
I'm a newer investor here working towards my first deal and i'm very excited. My realtor is investor friendly and she is always on the same page with me in looking at deals and offering on them. However, I realize that it is tedious to look in person every single property that we're considering making an offer on. Even the properties that have lots of pictures that makes you feel like your at the property. (This can be deceiving at times though) How do you guys go through your processes in finding deals? Do you usually look at every property you offer on? Or only the ones that get accepted and you make bids off of the pictures given?

in this market I don't think there is time to view anything until you get a contract accepted. You can usually get a broad sense of work needed from pictures but not always.
