Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. gain is fully taxable, and you may be subject to unrecaptured 1250 depreciation (at up to 25%). If you were considering a like-kind exchange into other rental property, it is too late now that you have sold the condominium. Your mortgage has nothing to do with your gain calculation. << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. deferred taxable gain using a like-kind exchange or you could have sold on an installment plan thereby spreading the gain out over a number of years. -- Alan http://taxtopics.net << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |

| I have rental property that has a 30 year mortgage. The first seven years I lived in the condominium. I then converted it to rental property for seven years. I recently sold the condominium. I have taken the depreciation during the time it was rental property. Now the dilema, how to reduce my capital gains, since it is not my primary residence? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. << -------------------------------------------------> << The Charter and the Guidelines for submitting > << messages to this newsgroup are at www.asktax.org > << -------------------------------------------------> |
