take him home for a few days first on a trial basis, Gray's bond to one person and may develope problems in a new location - kids, pets & noises are very difficult for them to adjust to and may never. I had mine for 9 years then married - he went into a rage whenever the kids came into the room then started attacking anything that moved, finally gave himself a fatal wound attacking his reflection

DO you know the bird already? I would meet and spend time with the parrot, seeing if it will like you and take it's favorite treats from you hand. Try being with it with it's person out of the room. Then when you bring it home, don't change anything else. Give it the same food, treats, toys, cage, everything the same. Keep it on the same schedule. If it had been covered, then cover it so it's daylight hours are the same. We once got a 16 year old Double yellowhead Amazon from the grandson of a lady who had died. He just wanted the bird to have a home with people who knew parrots. So no transition for us:-) Well, she hated me but loved my husband. She would get off her perch and search for me in the house just to attack my legs. But if I wore my hair up tight and a man's shirt, even glasses, I could handle her, though she didn't love my like hubby. I finally found a lady with short hair that she loved so I gave her to the lady. I was very happy to find her a better home where she wasn't under constant stress to attack someone. SO, sometimes it takes a few tries to get it right. That's why I suggest getting to know the bird first:-)

I'd would suggest seeing the bird in person before committing to anything. I agree to u need to know the bird's schedule and know exactly what kind of diet it is on. I don't know if u have had or do have other parrots but u should know that u need to rotate their toys a minumum of 1ce a month 2.
