Indeed that’s what OP did. Bought in the Bay low, then sold high and moved to Austin, where presumably the increase in value is again sufficiently high because Austin prices skyrocketed in the last 5 years.

Yes! My point is simply that, unlike an investment property, it's often hard to "see" the upside on a home sale. OP appears to have reinvested significantly in the epic new land + gaff, and also makes the point that prices have since been declining in Austin. The fact it's a home means that all this is a bit of an aside to the real transaction.
Yeah OP is winning at life about 10 times over.
