I'm also finding for out of state people moving to the area that virtual tours are great and that those same video tours work for people who can't make the open house.I don't use anything fancy for my own units just Zillow and their rental manager and it works pretty well for the two units we have personally.  

When listening to podcasts (specifically BP), remember, virtually everyone on the show started after the Great Recession and has been riding this insane wave of appreciation.

The reasons for choosing the 2nd property over an ADU addition includeThe appreciation opportunity with the 2nd propertyWe virtually always buy value add properties.  

This is something that cannot be successfully done only virtually. 

Cultivate more abundance, see family more.Attend more in person and virtual meetups, learn about creative financing, and apartment syndication. 

From what I have witnessed, virtual wholesaling is a horrible business model.

@Rick Albert you must be probably the best agent in Los Angeles because virtually zero properties get sold 3.5% down/FHA in LA these days simply because the prices are way wayy above the FHA guidelines for affordable housing for FHA buyers in most of coastal SoCal, and if the price is low enough to qualify for the FHA buyer price ceiling which I think is still somewhere around 600 to 700K, the property is probably not habitable without a good $100k to get it in livable condition which wouldn’t qualify for FHA to begin with.

I've attended virtually to learn how it works.

For Austin, with typical 20% down on a SFH cash flow is virtually impossible year one, but almost certainly appears around year three.  

I have a virtual assistant for $6/hour cold calling on a list of people in my area (found on propstream) who owe tax liens or are in pre foreclosure.
