Out of state - contract signed - When do I visit?

First time CA investor, got two SFR under contract yesterday (8/31 and 9/21 closing date) in Kansas City. I feel I should go check out the property in person and meeting with contractors/PMs etc. Can only be there for the day or max one night. What is the best time to visit?

1) At the inspection

2) After the inspection and reached agreement with seller on fixes or prices, but before the contingency period ends. 

- I am assuming meet with contractors & property management during this time?

3) After inspection contingency. 

- I probably can't back out at this point without losing the EMD. Is there any particular reason I should visit at this time?

Please help me vote and state the reason. Greatly appreciate your advice (dos and don'ts) to share for a newbie investor?

Thank you!
