Purchase price: $125,000 Cash invested: $65,000 Sale price: $250,000 Wish I could have held onto it but needed the money to fund future deals What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

@Pixel Rogue everyone has different future plans - many though haven't thought that far ahead!

This is a great first step into your financial future.

Let’s work together to create a brighter future for both of us!

For the moment though, I am just trying to gain a more robust understanding of all things real estate that I could reasonably see in my future.  

If you sell, you could access the equity you’ve built and put it toward other investments or save for a future down payment.

Not sure of housing in 2025 and future.

As world economics and geo politics have become more of a constant, this Teak investment will serve for diversification in asset class, maturity- since you don't have to harvest, currency arbitrage since main customers are China/India/Europe. 

I know for the forseeable future I will be based in Quantico, Virginia but I am definitely open to out of state investing!

I'm not sure I would get to cute trying to squeeze every time out of it now with a lease that might cause you issues in the future, but the scenario you describe is common and probably smart.
