In the meantime if you all know of masterminds being hosted virtually, I’m interested as well!

If it was a deal that was larger than I am used to purchasing or included more units than I normally buy I would want to personally see it, but if they are the same type of properties that I have regularly been looking at and purchasing I would say viewing may not be the most important aspect.

@Michael YoderI cannot stress enough to have an HUD experienced agent, lender and title company as HUD has guidelines that are different from regular transcationsIn regards to your lender, make sure upfront that:-They have closed HUD transactions and are familiar with their funding process-Make sure the lender has a work around if you are not able to turn on utilities for the appraiser as this is the case with many HUDs 

It's the same Global Economy idea that ushered in the great depression, as regular people as well as businesses got into trading on a margin of 10% or less.

          * This will help expose me to the life of being a regular agent so I can see if it is something I want to expand upon or not.- Able to pick a mentor that is also an investor. * If I’m going to work closely with someone then it might as well be another investor so I can expand my network while getting trained.* Worse Case - I don’t get much help but I have another POC* Best Case - things work out really well with my mentor and we are able to work with each other on some projects.- Fee structure that isn’t too restrictive or costly* A flat fee per transaction sure would be nice but a low percentage split would also work.So far I am liking what I see at Premier Property Group.

If there are pets in the unit, make sure they have food and water on a regular basis (Purina), and if they are abandoned contact these people: https://www.nokillnetwork.org/d/Massachusetts/(Or you could keep them for yourself if you want--they sure need a new home)Good Luck!

Do you use a regular phone camera walk through or is there a specific app you recommend?

No you could just arrange a regular sale, as long as the sale price is at or above everything owed. 

They've taken additional precautionary measures when inspecting properties - Gloves, masks, booties to cover their shoes.Attorneys are mostly working from home but have been pumping out contracts pretty quickly for our team which has been great.Insurance agents haven't skipped a beat either - homeowner's insurance policies, renter's insurance policies, etc. have been coming back within 24-48 hours.Realtors in some markets, including NY, have been restricted from showing homes or hosting open houses.

I actually Attended a virtual house hacking meet up hosted by Craig and Micheal yesterday and it was terrific!
