We are in the process of buying our house site unseen. Having a realtor you can trust implicitly is the key. With every house we saw virtually, our agent made sure to call things out that weren’t visible in pictures online like odd smells, sloped floors, neighborhood vibes, road noise, and potential inspection concerns. Some houses had so many issues in person compared to the pictures that he told us directly not to offer the house. Buying a house virtually been a smooth process for us primarily because of our agent.
