I also sold 2 properties to one out of state and another from Pakistan and the buyer never walked through but relied on the home inspection to determine scope of work or to complete the deal.

I invest in Boise, ID and do quite a few BRRRRs, LTRs and STRs- varying degrees of success depending on how much equity we can force and the type of back end financing we can find, but the tax benefits are great and it's a rapidly growing market and Idaho is probably the most landlord friendly state in the nation.
