First off, congratulations on your new home purchase. Smart move.
I own two, but one I recently sold Contract for Deed. It's a house I purchased while in Grad school, instead of paying for an apt. near campus.
The 2nd one is a house w/5 acres out in the country, but it's been empty since I bought it because I can't get a good enough high speed connection out there. So now I'm in a lease situation on another home and need to sell my 2nd place.
Best advice - buy low, sell high
Do your homework and don't believe 95% of what you see on any "flip this house" type of show.
