Section 121 Capital Gain exclusion from home sale
I am 81 and my wife is 77. We both retired in 2007 and are both on Social Security. We are both healthy with no disabilities. We want to sell our home and move to an independent living retirement center. My question is pertaining to the Section 121 Capital Gains from sale of primary residence. We’ve received conflicting opinions. Previous Home: Purchased in: 2009 Sold: 6/15/2020 Current Home: Purchased: 7/20/2020 Plan to sell on: 10/1/2023 We used the Section 121 exclusion on the sale of our previous home. It has now been slightly over 3 years and we want to use the exclusion on the sale of this home. We have lived in current home over 3 years and it been over 3 years since we used the exclusion on our previous home. My question is can we use use the Section 121 exclusion again on the sale of our current home? Thank you very much, John Blake
