Capital Gains Tax Exclusion Could Double for Home Sellers
A bipartisan bill gaining momentum in Congress could double the capital gains tax exclusion for homeowners who sell their primary residence. The proposal would raise the exclusion from $250,000 to $500,000 for single filers and from $500,000 to $1 million for married couples filing jointly, with future increases tied to inflation. Supporters say the change could also help unlock housing inventory by removing a potential tax barrier for longtime homeowners who are reluctant to sell. Kathy Fettke explains what's in the More Homes on the Market Act, why the National Association of Realtors is backing it, and what the proposal could mean for homeowners, housing supply, and real estate investors.
