I own an apartment that I lived in for about 8 years before moving out to rent a home with my new husband (apartment was too small for us both) while we save to buy a home together. 5 years later, I want to sell my apartment and use that money to buy a home together, but now I have to face the capital gains tax implications.Since I moved out but did not buy a second home and instead, my husband and I have been living in a rental - is the apartment that I own considered my primary residence (since it was for 8 years prior) and therefore, can I avoid or minimize the capital gains tax?

I'm a new investor and I'm looking to acquire a job within the RE industry to learn my current market and to gain some valuable skills along the way.

I have a particular passion that makes me interested in pursuing commercial residential properties and property development as a future endeavor once I've gained a better understanding of it.  

We can sell under the end of 2022 with no capital gains.

Is there another angle of investing in these units that I should study to gain better knowledge?

I have consumed many books to this point and have gained a great deal of knowledge with the hopes to turn that into wealth, but Uncle Sam the tax man scares me a bit, and I'm afraid I'll miss a very important number when figuring my deal.On to my question.

I can have parents visiting me and living on 2FL) or leave it empty, would I be able to exclude all the profit from capital gains tax if it's within the limit (250,000)? 

Surprisingly it seems like they aren't having much trouble gaining traction with their current model.   

It is always super important to meet with several lenders to gain education and bounce ideas off of them.
