First house under contract

I now have my first "deal" under a 2 month option contract.

I have the home under contract at 212K; I'm marketing it to sell at 220K. Not really a wholesale but more like trying to find an end buyer willing to pay 220K. Any thoughts on how to try and get it sold?

I'm also getting ready to put a home under option contract at 118K and going to market it and sell it at 130K. Should I sacrafice a few thousand in profit and use a seller's agent? Can I use an agent when I have someone else's home under option?

Thanks
