The $250,000/$500,000 Home Sale Tax Exclusion

Hello my BP mates!!

Just have a little question about sale tax exclusion. I purchased a townhouse back in 2008 and lived there until December 2014 when I rented the property and moved to a different one. I'm thinking on sale the property and I wonder if I still qualify for the exclusion. Hope one  of my investors colleague with more experience can give a hand on this. Thanks!

As long as you sell it within 3 years of moving out...."must have occupied for at least 2 of the last 5 years".  You will have some depreciation recapture though for the period it was a rental.
