Might be 0% if you're poor, but more likely 15% or 20% depending on your income.Of course, I'm not a CPA or tax preparer, but I think that's about right.If you can delay the sale somehow those two months, so that it's your primary residence for 2 years, you should qualify for the homeowners exclusion.I hope that helps,Good luck.

Couldn't get financing as the banks here only use US tax returns as a way to qualify income which I wasn't expecting (Common Cayman!).

Since I was in Texas and planned on staying there I found out that I was qualified to take a real estate broker test without having to take anything extra so I got the license.  

Are you looking for Qualified Intermediaries?

Those with great credit who can prove they have great credit will be more likely to qualify for better terms.

To my knowledge if you have the down payment and qualify for a consumer mortgage, you don't have to occupy it/you can rent it out.

Discover automatically check each month after one year to see if you qualify for their unsecured card.

He sends me back a text, all huffy, about how it's not real smart to deny a qualified renter by electronic communication, like he's making a threat.I told him, unless he's a member of a protected class, i can tell him to take a flying %$#@.    

Always look at first come, first qualified to avoid fair housing violations.Good luck!

First My Qualified Intermediary is a lawyer who said he can change or back date the 45 day period for identifying a like-property.
