Live-In-Flip Taxes When Selling

[Luke Eilert]

I am currently finishing up a live-in-flip and looking to sell. Not interested in doing a 1031 at this time, but need to know what kind of tax implications I will have. I purchased this property for $130K, put 30k into it, and planning on selling for around 190K.

I closed on the property August 21st 2020, so if I sell before owning the house 1 year, will I need to pay short term capital gains? Or since this served as my primary residence, do I not have to pay capital gains tax at all? Then would I deduct the 30k I put into it from my gains?
