Trump Considers Eliminating Capital Gains Tax on Homes
Tap title to read story
President Trump suggested eliminating capital gains taxes on home sales, prompting Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's support. This could impact homeowners exceeding the $250,000 (single) or $500,000 (joint) exemption thresholds. Currently, those exceeding these limits pay long-term capital gains tax, the rate depending on income. A recent study suggests millions of homeowners could benefit, disproportionately wealthier, older individuals. The proposal's impact on the national deficit remains unclear, given recent legislation increasing it by $3.4 trillion.
