Investing out of state sight unseen

[Molly Paprota]

Hi, I am NY-based looking for purchase a long term/BRRR in Cleveland, and want to hear your experience with out of state investing.

Are most out of state investors closing on properties without doing physical walkthroughs? Same with rehab, are you rehabbing properties without physically being on-site to oversee the process? This feels risky to me, but this is my first purchase so would love to hear how you've handled an out of state investment. Thanks!
