My client is still on the fence and has not yet moved forward with a new-unit reservation--but he wants unrealistic 30% CCR returns (at least for Utah).3.  

seems like you made the right choice, many sellers want to base an evaluation on pro forma numbers which is entirely unrealistic.

A 50% discount from listing price could seem a little unrealistic..but I would not discourage any offer..As for expenses I would request copies of the sellers formal statements or records.

I am looking into the Texas market and don't want to spend two plus years searching for a single deal because i have an unrealistic expectation for returns. 7%+ cap rate is what i'm using as a benchmark.
