Looks like a steal to me if you're in the market for a twin.

At least on paper, mid-time TIO-540s, low TTAF. Figure operating costs, what, $250 per hour?

She needs paint and doesn't appear to have an AP and will need to be 2020 compliant.

tell me about it. if i were a single man, that plane would be on it's way home to me today. though PA23s in various configs show up. for me, i'd want (in order of preference)

430W or better
AP
Deice
Turbo

at least a few hundred hours left TBO, passable paint, GOOD useful load (which steers you to older ones)

I'm not sure if they all have a ZFW. when I've been poking around, it seems like a lot of them do, which in some cases means the cabin weight is about equal to a Cherokee six....
