| This Calculator
allows you to determine an estimated capital gains tax
due on the sale of your principal residence. Generally,
the current federal law limits on how much profit you
can make on the sale of your principal residence (that
you have held for at least two(2) years) before you pay
capital gain tax is $500,000 for married couple and
$250,000 for a single homeowner. However, if you are
moving due to job relocation, a change in health, or
some other unforeseen circumstance, you may be eligible
for partial exclusion even if you have owned the home
for less than two(2) years. There are some limits. There
are many exclusions which could affect your results and
each individual's tax situation is different. Therefore
these results can not be relied upon for tax purposes or
advice. You should consult your tax advisor before
entering into any agreement or transaction that may
affect your tax liability. Any representation either
implied or explicit that tax advice is contained herein
is expressly denied
