Double check the frequency bands

Knowing the model & serial number would help verify. Using it abroad might require 2100, that's the only think you didn't list. Everything else seems to be covered.

Edit: just to verify, are these the LTE bands- 700/1700/1900? See here for reference:

*note the different versions of this phone by carrier. Verify the one you will be obtaining.

If it has been re-farmed, even better

That also means 1900 is good to go for HSPA+. Even though it's an ATT issued phone, you should be fine.
