The disrepair of physical possessions is trumped by confidence and knowledge. 

Not sure who has physical possession of the garage.

They'll soak everything else up like a sponge just by proximity.

Proximity to work?

Go to the physical office or meet your agent for coffee, shake hands and talk.

So I pose this question, when a buyer doesn't have physical money, is there room for me to step in and lend my physical money, and gain a percentage when the house is sold?

I already consulted with the usa-corporate guys but physically traveling to the USA is not an option for me in the next 2-3 months for sure.

There were days where I was catatonic and physically ill from stress. 

I don't have any affiliation with this program so I can't answer any questions, but here's the website for more info:http://www.gybo.com/californiaI've long considered setting up some sort of basic website for property management so I can list vacancies when they come up and include a link to a rental application (with the hope of getting more people to see the house and apply online so I don't have to physically go to the property to do these things).

We might be open to a living in one unit of a multi-unit property too, if it's configured right.We're primarily interested in buying in the East Bay (ideally Berkeley) for proximity to work.
