I feel that the home buying process is too large of a transaction and too emotional for it to ever be done 100% in a virtual world.

Homeowners are much more emotional about them.

I became emotionally attached when it initially fell through.

First time homebuyer emotions got me.

It’s one of the few real estate “investments” you can allow your emotions to play a roll. 

No emotions attached, business only.

Text message received = work order; if item repaired or replaced and I did the work, then I'll have a text message sent back to the tenant showing work completed; if it's something I had to purchases (new stove for example), then I'll have both the receipt for the appliance store & a text back to the tenant showing the work was complete.One of the nice things about my properties is I fall into that tiny sliver of properties that are exempt from having to allow emotional support animals. 1 property being a single family house not brokered by a real estate agent.

Make every decision without emotion. 

You learn to keep emotions out of your decisions.

And each of those six wives have 2 emotional support pit bulls too!
