Makes me think one (or more) of the following is going on:War zone, very difficult tenantsLow economic and/or physical vacancyMajor renovations required, perhaps to the point of making this deal untenableDo your homework.The amount of time this will take to manage really depends on many of the factors above.

One of the first things we learned was the difference between physical occupancy and economic occupancy.

But I agree with the sheriff that landlords should not be the party physically removing tenants.Do you have any numbers to present to the committee? 

, how do I close on a property to include accepting keys all while not physically being there?

Here's how I do my due diligence:1) Portfolio matching: (takes 30 seconds per deal)a) Have an educated opinion on where you think we are in the real estate cycles (financial and physical market cycles)b) Then only then pick the strategies, capital stack, and specialized asset subclasses that make sense for that opinion.

Do you like the physical work; pick a trade like electrical, construction, plumbing, roofing,etc and go that route.  

A 5% physical vacancy might be correct but you will probably have the occasional non-payer that takes a month to evict. 

Here’s my question, are there investors out there that actually buy property without having seen them physically themselves; buying without stepping foot in and walking the floors?

Even clients that have been with me for years are worried that that might not even have the opportunity to sell next week if their city or town goes into lock-down.This week potential clients are saying that they don't want to invest in appointments right now because they don't know if they will physically be able to show houses because of quarantines or lock-downs.I can't fault their logic so I'm looking for a way to help them in the meantime.

@Michinori Kaneko we've thought about it. given my background in business and managing projects it's def something we've discussed as an optionya, we are getting pretty serious haha. haven't been overly impressed with GCs or PMs so figured we'd just have her get the license and we'd manage it all and then handle all property mgmt. will definitely be a learning curve because its managing physical units vs software but will be a fun challenge and yes, stock market was wild today / past week. real estate is a great asset class :)
