I would ask them to check out the house physically, if you get there then make a firm offer you're comfortable with it.

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

Personally I would rather spend time finding more deals, sourcing financing, and building a solid team, than I would going to physically check on my properties myself and deal with potential maintenance issues.

The physical handle, the flapper chain came off, etc. 

Just to give you an idea of how the market changes, back in 2008-2010, I was probably offering on 40-50 out of 100 (that we physically looked at) and closed on 15-20 out of a 100.These days, I don't look at a lot of properties (most of my deals are partnerships and my partners are doing the acquisition stuff), but I'd probably say we're putting offers on about 15-20 out of 100 (that are physically looked at) and closing on less than 5 out of 100.The other big difference is that 10 years ago, we probably looked at about 25% of all deals that came across my desk. 

Since a condo would be limited in terms of physical changes, think about what services or experiences you could add like grocery shopping (assuming full kitchen), concierge, driving service, eco tours, snorkeling, etc...

Anderson says this is best practice since WY has charging order protection and the physical location of shares may come into play in the unfortunate event of a lawsuit judgment against me. 

Seller no longer physically resides at the address.

I'm a Dad to Logan 9, Lucas 6, husband to Wendy.I've spent the last 11 years as an entrepreneur in the digital marketing world, primarily focused on physical product eCommerce (I own 2 brands that operate on Etsy and Shopify), and most recently having kinda accidentally built a few 100k social media following as the Carnivore Dad.I’ve been interested in and attracted to real estate for years but I just made excuses that had me staying in my lane of digital marketing, however I'm here now and eager to learn.I settled on Texas as my primary state because I have family here, I love meat, and I’m interested in firearms.

Are you sure there's no legal (as opposed to physical) access?
