If you are going to buy a house to fix and sell, then you should determine what margin you want to have before buying it. If you are not going to fix it up to sell it then you must either buy it below the market value; or buy it, and wait for the market value to increase.
The second option could take a long time in this market.

The best option is to determine what the market of a home that needs fixing up will be after it is fixed up. Then, subtract all of the costs involved in buying, fixing, holding, and the margin you want. That becomes the price you are willing to pay for the home.

Like most home owners – or prospective home owners – we want our own home to be a sound investment. And whether property is booming or busting, you need to ensure your home will serve your personal financial goals well. If you are a first home owner, your goals are very different to an investor or someone wanting to downsize. Be clear what you need to achieve by owning a property, and separate your lifestyle goals from your financial goals

Buying low and selling high is an easy enough concept to understand and we all would like that. Getting it to happen is more difficult. Being lucky is one way, but the more reliable way is to have a skilled negotiator on both the purchase and the sale. Still, the market rules.

Depend upon the market you choose for example if you are planning to sell out your house in Dubai then i guess this is not the right time to sell other markets have their own importance..

Unfortunately there is no easy answer. There are a lot of factors to take into consideration when deciding how soon you will sell a house once you purchase it.

Yes, no easy answer. Sometimes a little bit of luck will mean a great deal of good investment. It will always boil down to being careful on what the real value of the property is. Best of luck on the business.

thanks for info here guys, thanks
