Capital Gains on personal residence if spouse dies before home is sold
I have a client who is married. His wife is in long-term care for dementia, and may pass in the next year. If he holds the family home and uses it a rental for a year and the wife passes before he sells it does the capital gains exemption drop from $500,000 to $250,000? This property is in California.
