This exclusion is allowed each time that you sell your main home, but generally no more frequently than once every two years. To be eligible for this exclusion, your home must have been owned by you and used as your main home for a period of at least two out of the five years prior to its sale. You also must not have excluded gain on another home sold during the two years before the current sale. If you and your spouse file a joint return for the year of the sale, you can exclude the gain if either of you qualify for the exclusion. But both of you would have to meet the use test to claim the $500,000 maximum amount. To exclude gain, a taxpayer must both own and use the home as a principal residence for two of the five years before the sale. The two years may consist of 24 full months or 730 days. Short absences, such as for a summer vacation, count as periods of use. Longer breaks, such as a one-year sabbatical, do not. If you do not meet the ownership and use tests, you may be allowed to exclude a reduced maximum amount of the gain realized on the sale of your home if you sold your home due to health, a change in place of employment, or certain unforeseen circumstances. Unforeseen circumstances include, for example, divorce or legal separation, natural or man-made disaster resulting in a casualty to your home, or an involuntary conversion of your home. If you can exclude all the gain from the sale of your home, you do not report any of that gain on your federal tax return. If you cannot exclude all the gain from the sale of your home, use Schedule D, Capital Gains or Losses, of the Form 1040 to report it.

This celebrated city in the desert that was conceived by a well “connected” visionary has grown into one of the greatest destinations on the planet. Known as sin city, Las Vegas is the place to live out fantasies, catch a show, do some shopping and, of course, gamble. The latest venture that is sweeping the Las Vegas real estate market is the condo boom. Famed developers are now focusing their efforts on the still untapped Las Vegas condo market. Casinos such as the Hard Rock and Palms are focusing their creative energies into Las Vegas condos, and as Vegas real estate continues to climb, the value of the luxury condos will also grow. Following the business model that was so successful in South Florida, developers such as Turnberry and The Related Group are constructing opulent condos that rival the magnificent hotels for which Las Vegas is primarily known. These condos will have full spa services, concierges, magnificent gyms, rooftop pools, fabulous common area, restaurants, and much more. The excitement surrounding these new ventures is so great that celebrities from neighboring Los Angeles are getting into the game. With stars like Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Drew Carey, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Claudia Schiffer having already made investments in Las Vegas real estate, odds are good that many others will follow suit. And as the stars come, so will the enthusiasm that follows. This enthusiasm will certainly ensure that Las Vegas condos are a strong play for the savvy investor.
