Good advice. The myth that you can sell a new home in one year and make a sizeable profit is just a MYTH. Yes, some homeowners are able to do this. Many are seasoned investors who know what they are doing or have buyers in their pocket before purchasing a home. An average homeowner should be cautious and research thoroughly before buying. It may take longer for an Average Joe to see a sizeable gain.
