Yes, we just bought a townhouse in Las Vegas, from online photos and videos only. We would never have done this in a buyer's market. The market is insane right now. We would never have gotten our new home unless we offered--above asking, waive inspection, waive appraisal--before seeing the house. We had 10 offers live at the same time, all without seeing the home. It was only after our offer was accepted that we came out to see the home, which, fortunately, exceeded our expectations. We also have renters at our Santa Monica property, and more and more are submitting applications without seeing the apartment, as they are coming from out of town.
