When I built the home, I didn't plan on selling it that quickly but the situation had changed. I was only asking $129K because the mortgage rates in 1982 were 16%, real estate wasn't moving and nobody was flipping homes. Flipping a home in an established neighborhood is going to get a better price than new construction in a development still being developed.
