In order to serve it you have to physically meet with them at property and give it to them..or if your there you call police tell them you want a NO Trespass order made against the person that is CURRENTLY on your property and you want them removed.

Once I narrow down the properties I'm interested in bidding on, I physically view the properties a couple days before the sale. 

It's likely that I will need to take the courses online vs. something in a physical classroom (if the schools are offering in person again). 

Are there physical signs at the property the work was completed?

You don't own the property until you have physically signed and funded the deal, therefore without permission from the current owner you could be potentially putting yourself in a bad position.The deal is not done until the deal is officially closed.

@Brock Barr  I think there's a large segment of the investor population that derives physical pleasure from analyzing properties but then will suffer physical and emotional torment when it comes to actually doing something.

And take notes (mental or physical) on what you see.

We got shut down for a couple of months too, and short of physically getting shut down by airbnb and/or local governments(likely?)

Touches are the administrative part and or physical touches, cleaning and pick up drop offs.

While that may be a slight exaggeration, it is not too far off and as hard as it was to switch to this way of thinking (I have always been a doer and one that feels if you want it done right, you have to do it yourself), it is a worth while physical and mindset transition for your business (if a business is what you are running and not a hobby).1.
