<prompt> Human: Four years ago I posted in rrealestate about buying a condo as an alternative to paying for a dorm for our the-23-year old son, for his final 2 years at uni.We ended up buying the 1 BR condo. 61K in Eastern Massachusetts - hot real estate market. Borrowed from 401K and used savings. No mortgage. May of 2016 he graduated. June we put the condo on the market for 80K. Listed it on a Monday. On Wednesday we got a full price offer. On Thursday we got an over full price, cash, no inspection offer. Sold.Worked out great. More a testament to the insanity of the real estate market than my financial acumen. I will take credit for listening to my wife, who is way smarter than I am in these things. Were using the proceeds - after taxes - to finance some home improvement. 401K loan will be paid off by end of year.  <response>: And given the lost growth on the 401k account, it was essentially a wash.
