Since a divorce in general means both parties are going their separate ways, they generally want to maximize the proceeds from sale, so again, likely not a substantial discount unless it is warranted.What the OP needs is an experienced partner frankly.  

We see this when there are essentially two different parties living in the same residence.

If you are talking a 15 million dollar deal then obviously many of the parties are top level from the commercial brokers down to the attorneys and the buyer and the seller.It is a war back and forth to get a balanced deal and go under contract.

For my part, I am a little worried about long-term prospects in Syracuse.

@Michele Fischer  We have nine rooms and mostly rent to mine workers or casino workers.

You also will need someone who will sign off on your financials, when you present them to a 3rd party for loans and other reasons.One of our clients hired a CPA since the last two years.

In other words, why are you in a better position to obtain an interest in a property than the occupants and what is that advantage worth to the various parties?

It gave you the status of someone that knew what they were doing and could handle all the required items involved, it was not a case of the blind leading the blind and the other party liked that.

How long can it maintain being a "party" destination? 

In theory both parties will eventually see everything.
