Do you know how to avoid paying capital gains tax on your primary residence?

Even if you turned it into a rental?

Simple. You just need to follow the 2 out of the last 5 rule.

If you have lived in your primary residence 2 out of the last 5 years, you can exclude up to 250k if single or 500k if married capital gains. That’s massive savings.

Here’s something that most cpa’s don’t know. If you are military, the 2 out of 5 years rule is extended to 2 out of the last 15 years.

If I reside in the house for 2 years as my main residence and then rent it out for another 2 years, can I sell it in the fourth year, prior to reaching the 5-year threshold, and defer the capital gains?
