Help should I sell current investment for seed Money?
Hello, happy to finally make a post after many months of thinking of what to do next. Onto the point, I need help/advice on the best options. I’ve had a manufactured home in Las Vegas unsuccessfully sold twice now even with willing to take a small loss, always been somewhat of a headache as it was passed along originally purchased for my mom, I was the co-signer. I took over ownership and by accident became an investor after purchasing my own home and unable to sell the manufactured home. I always broke even on rent and cost, though that has changed luckily after fixing it up and now the profits cover most of my own mortgage. Light bulb I wish to continue purchasing possibly a multi next but wonder if it would be best to sell I would have a nice profit this time around to use that as seed money. Or should I just use my own savings for the next purchase. I suppose what makes me nervous is knowing manufactured homes are known to tank terribly when the economy changes and I’m debating should I sell at an all time high now with the hot market in Vegas? Cash out and combine profits and savings to quickly scale? Any feedback is much appreciated.

Sell it. Never spend our seed money. Use it too infinity, but never spend it. The idea of selling a property that you can make a profit on is exactly how you scale up. Keep the line moving, and create bigger and bigger profits along the way.
You only cost is what comes out of you pocket. As long as you have possitive CF, the tenant is paying for the rest. If you keep introducing new cash from your pocket into the mix, you're adding to your cost. When you recycle the same cash, over and over, there is no added cost to you.
If you want more details on how/why this works, PM me.
