Do you always pay capital gains tax when selling real estate?

No. Homeowners may avoid capital gains tax if they qualify for the primary residence exclusion, which allows up to $250,000 in gains for single filers and $500,000 for married couples filing jointly.

What is the 2-year rule for capital gains on real estate?

The rule requires homeowners to live in the property for at least two out of the previous five years before selling in order to qualify for the primary residence capital gains exclusion.

Can you avoid capital gains tax by reinvesting in real estate?

Yes. A 1031 exchange allows investors to defer capital gains taxes when selling an investment property and purchasing another qualifying property.

Does Texas charge capital gains tax on real estate?

Texas does not impose a state income tax, meaning there is no state-level capital gains tax on real estate sales.

How long do you have to reinvest money in a 1031 exchange?

Investors must identify replacement property within 45 days after selling their original property and must complete the purchase of the new property within 180 days.
