Sometimes people just need some support in taking that leap into investing in real estate and they want an experienced investor helping them and spotting them as they take that leap.

The individual came out of the blue asking if I would be interested in taking his money so he can get in on the deal.

My roommate and I are interested in taking a similar path.

If you have reasonable proof supporting your offer, I don't see the issue in taking a shot at it.

I called a few property managers and most were not interested in taking on management of this property.

If you are trying to figure out a "fair" price, I think you also have to consider not just the money, but the time you'll take in taking care of the deferred maintenance as well as the time it will take to raise rents to market especially if it's in a state that only allows you to raise rent by a small percentage.
