A remote owner's Puget Sound property review: the sale process

  1. 1. Set up a remote-owner review

    2. Compare without relying on an unseen condition guess

    3. Verify remote closing instructions

    Put the agreement ahead of assumptions

    Prepare the details for this review

    • Last reliable inspection: Record the date, observer, and areas that were actually accessible.
    • Document currency: Separate current reports from older listings, photos, and estimates.
    • Authorized contact: State who may arrange visits and who may approve contractual changes.
    • Signing location: Tell escrow where each signer will be and ask what process is acceptable.
    • Remote ownership costs: List management, travel, utilities, and maintenance while deciding.
