As a former agent, I would often get around this by having a “sight unseen” rider added to the lease, and having the customer sign it. I would then FaceTime the customer, and video a walk through of the exact unit prior to them signing the lease digitally.

An email of the video, notarized signature on the rider…never had an issue renting apartments in NYC this way. Landlords just wanted their ass covered.

I appreciate the info. I'll talk to the rental company and see if this is an option. The company was more worried about the tenant calling them constantly and complaining about the unit.
