Rent probably $5000/month or less. 

I can justify any price (and some high fee syndicators are still doing so), if I just play with assumptions, prepay and buy down my interest rate, and hope that sub-5% cap rates will be returning in the next few years.But if you know your market and market cycle, have an idea where interest rates may be going (this is an educated guess for all of us), and then have your assumptions, you can certainly have the conversations you reference with brokers and see what their take is on pricing and if it is worth writing.Finally, I have said this before and will continue to say it, whether we are talking single family homes or 400 unit apartment complexes, off-market purchases do not make something a deal.  

I realize all attorneys differ and it could be hourly or flat but I want to do some research before hand.The plan is to sell as I have no interest in keeping it so there won’t be any repairs, if any, until the redemption period is over.

Any other thoughts or suggestions?

I also love helping others, so please reach out if you have questions or if you want help.
