Didn’t you want to stay in that house for the long-term? What prompted you to decide to sell now? Good job, if you get the deal done!
I agree with the others, what made your house easy to sell at a profit is going to affect the house you purchase in the same way. Not sure what you’re looking for as far a type and exact location, lot, etc. What are you seeing?
Unless this is a “real” bottom, prices should be weaker in the winter or even Q3/Q4 of 2010 (or beyond).
