Live in one and rent the rest out.

Once you start working with investment-minded professionals and viewing potential properties, the rest will start to come together. 

If they are solid, the rest is going to be small issues.  

The 8k in closing costs seems way high, but the rest seems great.

When we closed, I hand delivered a pre-written letter to both of them detailing who I was, the rental rates the comps supported and gave them a choice to either break their lease early, sign an early renewal (their lease don't expire until 12/31) at a lower than market rate, or just ride out the rest of the lease and move in the dead of winter.

You live in one unit and then rent out the rest of the units. 

Are there any further actions the LP needs to do for other states where the syndication was doing business (IE file a official state tax return?)

You don't need to know everything to get started; you just need a foundation to build on and the rest will come through experience and then refining your education.You can build a basic understanding of investing in 3-6 months.

We probably wouldn't have gone down to the studs in the rest of the bathroom, but they had put tile around the entire bathroom about 3 feet up from the floor what wasn't tile was wallpaper, ceiling included, and the walls were plaster.

@Isaac S. and @Kristin Bassett covered the rest of the critical points.
