I'm based in NYC and looking to find an investment property in Philadelphia.Because of the distance, my agent is willing to visiting the property on behalf of me and sends me videos.He goes into each room and shows me with his commentary, which is helpful.Because I'm not onsite, I'm not sure if I'm fully understanding the neighborhood, atmosphere or details that I cannot find in the video.Would you have any tips to ask for, or pay attention to in terms of viewing property via video?
