Interestingly enough there are people that work for construction and remodeling companies called estimators.

I invest out of state and the escrow companies typically will use some form of eSigning. 

In terms of other activities, you should make sure to line up the inspection, title, escrow and insurance company ahead of time.

There are typically a lot more variations in unit characteristics with 2-4 units properties than with larger apartment houses, etc. 

It’s like the automatic debit method that some bill companies do.

Work with a good property management company who will get co-signers from parents (parents are typically paying rents) and be flexible around subleasing, especially during summer periods because students go home and do not always stay for summer time; this can still be a 12 month lease.

You should check your state's laws but in Florida, the title company makes sure to verify the seller's identity after we open escrow.
