No debt service. I'm paying cash for my first multifamily. I can always get a mortgage after repairs are made if I decide to acquire more properties quickly. I also think he's a bit negotiable on the asking price. The last thing left to do is verify needed repairs. I think this will make or break the deal.

Agree - at face value that looks good. Beyond repair costs, make sure you're comfortable/conservative with your target rents and vacancy rates, those are the biggest components (to me) that can make or break things.
