As a one-off, this will get you way more for way less money than anything you try to do yourself.
And by "real" I mean a place with a well-treated recording space. Not ProTools in a bedroom.

By the time you buy everything you need and spend time getting comfortable getting a good recording and doing a basic mix, you will have spent way more than buying a couple hours of studio time in a smaller commercial studio.
The total spend is less than a decent interface. And the the benefits of having a pro engineer record & mix, along with access to microphones you'd never buy for a one-off project (like U87s, U67s & ELA M 251s) is huge. You'd even spend more just renting the equipment for a day.
Call around to local, smaller commercial studios. They often have flat rate offers for these quick projects.
