Long story short I own a lake / river lot in the hottest area of town. Since I bought it 2.5 years ago the neighborhood has taken off like crazy. I can now MORE THAN DOUBLE my investment. Origionally MrsRiverOtter and I were gonna build on it and live happily ever after. Now we're thinking the money would be nice to 1031 into other real estate investments. Plus the cost of construction went from $115/ft to 160+/ft. We were planning on a big house but don't want to be house poor. Any thoughts? Anybody? Beuler? Beuler?
