Be careful though because sometimes the owners mailing address may not match their physical address so pay close attention because that’s probably a rental.

From the way it is worded I always thought it was only referring to physical damages.

If the buyer says a letter is good enough and that an email is not good enough, why don't you simply go back to the HOA and get a physical letter from them?

My name doesn't show up when you search for my LLC, just my physical address.When I buy my first property, the owner will appear as my LLC right? 

It goes beyond just the physical condition of the property although that is very important to know first hand for most too.

Without having to spend a dime on any physical upgrades we will drastically turn the NOI around.

I definitely did not want to backtrack on my offer and lower less but after physically inspecting the property and the neighborhood it was located in, I realized that it wasn't ideal for my investment goals.

And all that's left is a much more reasonable 10 or 14 pages to physically sign.So instead of rush to read (or don't read at all) but take forever to sign the stuff (it should be the opposite of this, no?)

It's physical location would matter more on a rental. 

Most people buying investment properties frequently establish long term relationships with a lender to save them from having to resubmit the exact same paperwork over and over again, and to keep things smooth, etc.If you're trying to close while physically overseas, I'd also start looking into settlement service providers, sometimes called a "title company" and sometimes called a "settlement lawyer" depending on the state the real estate is in.
