JOHN F | I own one house, rent 2nd one to live in.i have bought & sold 3 houses this way.should I pay capital gains tax |
|

To cut to the quick - yes, you have to because the main criteria for exclusion of the gain from the sale is that it is that it is a principle residence that you lived in for 2 of the last 5 yrs, (There is also a proration that can be done to exclude a portion of the gain if you didn't own the house that long, but the time-ratio you would have had to have used it as a primary residence is similar.)
Since you are now on house 4, I get the impression you are buying, then flipping houses and this is why you rent something to actually live in. If this is the case, it is business activity. |

Yes of course you should pay capital gains taxes.
The only time you don't is when you sell your primary residence, for which you get to ignore $250,000 in capital gains (the rules being that you have to own the residence, it has to be your primary residence, and have used it for 2 years or more during the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or exchange of the house). This $250,000 amount doubles to $500,000 if you're married and your spouse meets the same 2 year use requirement. |

I would call an accountant and find out. Better to go to the Tax people than them come to you. |

The harsh reality is, yes! If you breath one too many times a day im sure they tax you on that too so be carefull! |

Yes, unless you have been unable to occupy the houses you own for work reasons. |

If you buy a home and live in it for at least 2 years you are safe for up to 250,000. I you sell without living in the home for at least 2 years your capital gain would be selling price minus your cost. All of which needs to be reported to the IRS on Sch D.
