Re: Sale of home
It depends. Did you live in the house for at least 2 out of the last 5 years? If you did, you may not have to pay any tax. If you lived there for less than 2 years, you sill might be able to avoid the tax, depending on why you sold. These questions are only the tip of the iceberg, there are many more that need to be asked.
You should consult a CPA or a tax attorney.
