Great choice for a car, and welcome to the club! Hopefully, we can steer you in the right direction no matter what you choose, or don't choose, to do to it!

"got to take a look at timing belt hoping it has been done"

"Hope" is a thin thread to hang the engine on. At 135,000 miles it's due for a second change.
