Similarly, the sale ($575K) minus your adjusted basis determines your capital gain.You may qualify for the primary residence exclusion (up to $250K single/$500K married) if you lived there 2 of the last 5 years.

When I tried to get it when my side of the family found out and tried tp take over reverse mortgage payments to bank because she had died it was to late so they sold the house to Hud and then other reverse mortgage companies but a relative still lives there so they can't kick them out.

I've been following the build-to-rent method for some time and even lived in one for 2 years.

I'd like to purchase an STR (I probably should have said that), being that I live in South Florida, Orlando isn't too far, but also not close enough that I can drop by anytime, so I thought I'd need a PM, or perhaps just a great team in place as far as a mechanic and cleaner, realtor and lender.Thanks again!  

My name is Wes and I live about an hour north of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.Looking to get into real-estate investing with long term rentals, BRRR, and House hacking.Currently looking to also find other other local people to chat to about real-estate and how to get started in our currently price inflated Ontario market.Let me know if you're in my area!!

Quote from @Sarah Kensinger: Boston is not STR friendly unless you live in the property.

Quote from @Laura Yelin: Hello BP'sI like Sherman...I lived there for about 3 years many years ago and still sell and rent there.It's a slow wealth building market in my opinion, not get rich quick.Mostly blue collar stable town.

If not, you’ll need to resolve these liens, which could complicate the investment.Current Occupants: The family living in the property could be protected under Massachusetts’ tenant and housing laws.

Your primary residence - if you've lived in it for 2 out of the 5 years prior to selling you'll get the $250K/$500K tax free iike @Clint Galliano said.
