Post: Capitol Gains Tax On Primary Residence

Hi all,
I am getting close to selling my primary home and will be making profit off the sale. It has only been my home for 10 months. I am moving to another city for a job that is more than 50 miles away, so I am exempt to being taxed on the money I will be making. Is there any paperwork I need to fill out before selling the home to ensure I do not get taxed on the money? Or will I just have to hire a CPA next spring to make sure my taxes get filed correctly?

Could you kick yourself in 6 months because prices go down? Yes. Could you kick yourself in 6 months because prices recovered? Yes. As long as it is a low risk purchase you'll most likely be fine.
Yes, I am planning on living in it and that is why I am on the fence right now. Thanks for the quick reply!

I am currently looking for a single family in the Boise area, but I am starting to get worried about the possibility of the bubble bursting.
Awesome! Thanks a lot for the quick reply!
I just moved to Boise, ID and am trying to find the best bank for checking and savings account and also a bank to eventually get a home loan from. Thanks!
