I think "with a pretty solid rep" means he has a good reputation, but in a business conversation "solid rep" would probably mean a very good representative. "My take" in this context is a short way of saying "My take on the matter", so he's giving his opinion. "Guilty as black-eyed sin" is an uncommon phrase that comes from the southern American states. Basically, "black-eyed sin" just means something very evil, and this character is as guilty as it.
