Because you're not looking to "buy houses", rather take over property management, you can craft a different message to garner interest.

I guess the lesson is what most people already know, ignoring the "asking" price and just craft deal terms that work for you

For example, in my market (Atlanta) I can craft deals with a cash-on-cash return of 12-14%, so a 10.68% return is not as interesting.

So you might end up crafting statements on QuickBooks or Excel.

Get a good commercial attorney familiar with retail to craft the lease. 

It's worth the money to use a commercial retail attorney to craft the documents.The REALTOR type forms tend to be a catch all for leasing to various tenant types in commercial so therefor can be vague and not specific enough to a specific asset class and a situation .

We don't anticipate much income aside from selling crafts and doing outdoor jobs, we have savings for the rest. 

We (the buyer) will pay for the down payment, closing costs, the only requirement for the cosigner is the cosigning on the loan.This agreement will be in writing crafted by our real estate lawyers.

I don't take kindly to non performers, and craft contract language that paves a path to penalty for those that take the process lightly.
