How can I defer capital gains taxes on my primary residence? There are two potential ways to include a primary residence in a 1031 exchange transaction. First, you can transition your primary residence into an investment property and then sell it, allowing you to use it in a 1031 exchange. The best way to complete this transition is to live elsewhere and use the former residence as a rental for two years.
大陆投资移民到华盛顿州,基本没有账面收入。有一个1.4M的自住房子,没有贷款。准备到南卡退休。
但是如果卖房,要交税,增值大概80万-25万免税额,大概50万要交增值税。
所以想这样:
先从1.4M里cash out refinance 70万。在南卡买两房,一个自住,一个出租。同时出租华盛顿州的房子。过一年后,华盛顿州的房子可以算投资房,可以1031。然后卖掉,再在南卡买一两个出租房,做1031,这样就绕开了50万增值部分要交的税。
这样对不对,是不是最优化的路线?
谢谢。

首先,自住转出租超过一年后,可以做1031,这没啥疑问,既可以免25万的税,多余部分1031.
但是,cashout 后再做 1031,这个是有限制的, IRS 不允许:refinance is in anticipation of an exchange 。 也就是说,你不能明知要做1031,却在这之前做refinance 。所以,你上来明确问,已经违反IRS的要求了。
不过话说过来, 如果你不上来问,谁会跑到你肚子里,知道你是否是“in anticipation of an exchange”呢,至少IRS没这本事吧? 所以你只要别吭声,cashout一年后再做1031, 我个人感觉问题不大!
除非是他refi以后,有life event,比如离婚了,结婚了,家里小孩去念书了,等等,能解释为什么去了南卡。
任务,这个跑不掉。(再进一步是继续cashout到每个都成骷髅房---每次都只剩25-30%,但>140万,丢也丢不得,一丢起码35万,跟11万比,还是不合算。除非一次房产大崩盘,直接丢了,否则就得至死方休。)
另外,1031置换一个错失(几个难点,且不多说),满盘皆输,累得够呛,税还没免成。
楼上的alpha123美眉说的对,由于没有账面收入,做为自住房根本贷不出款来,做为出租房倒可以申请不需要收入的DSCR Loan,但估计最多能拿出五六十万来,当然取决于利率和房租等。
进有出;有出有进.....
夫妻两个50万免税额
如何计算增值税?税率是多少?
当然,还要考虑其他因素,比如现在和以后的税率,想持有物业时间长短等。尤其如果永远不卖,做为遗产传承给下一代,那一分钱都不需要交。
