How to buy a house you have not seen first

I have purchased numerous homes for clients where they have never seen the home. It can be a nerve wracking experience for them but I am happy to say they have all been pleased with the purchases!

Take a video tour (I did this for the clients numerous times)
Find an agent you trust (I had relationships with the clients)
Do online neighborhood reconnaissance (I shared all the details-good and bad)
