Over 64 You Get Break On Home Sale
Taxpayers 65 or older may exclude all or part of gains from selling a home if they have lived there for at least five of the prior eight years. If the adjusted sale price is $20,000 or less, all gain is excludable. For higher prices, the excludable portion equals 20,000 divided by the adjusted sale price times the gain, with 50 percent of the gain taxed as a long term capital gain. The benefit is a one time opportunity.
