Just kidding,

Get it under contract. Put as little earnest money down. With home owners I never put up any money. Even though people say you have to have at least 1 dollar to make it legal, you just need a contract.

Try to get the keys and start marketing the house.

Don't try to make a killing. So many guys don't understand you have to leave most of the meat on the bone for the guy that's gonna rehab the house.
