NEW .....EXPERIENCE/ADVICE NEEDED

[Charles Salumn]

how's it going guys I won't bore you with a long back story but  as long as I can remember I wanted to invest in real estate   

I'm currently renting in Staten Island NY but am relocating to Delaware. my parents moves there 2 years ago.  And I figured I should follow suit. I am waiting on a transfer for my job but I'm the meantime I found a house that my former gf and I loved.  So I wound up buying it   4br 3 bath on 1/4 acre lot with a pool.   I planned on starting a family  however plans have changed and iM thinking about selling the house and buying an income property.... 

I was playing around with the idea on getting a multi unit and living in one and renting the rest.  Delaware has some very sketchy areas so I am concerned with that as well as if I am living there I'd rather it be a nicer area.  

I bought the house in July  for 302,500 put down 20 percent with an interest rate at 4.5  the real estate agent I worked with for the house says I probably can get what I paid for it... but I don't know what direction to go in    

This may sound confusing but any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you
