How Long Should You Own a Home Before Selling?

💡 Planning to sell? Timing is everything!

Selling too soon can cost you in taxes, closing costs, and lost equity. Here’s what to consider:

Avoid Capital Gains Tax – If you sell before living in the home for 2 years, you may owe capital gains tax on your profit.
Build Enough Equity – Selling before 5 years could mean you break even or lose money after agent fees and closing costs.
Market Conditions Matter – Interest rates and inventory levels affect the list price of your home.

📌 Thinking about selling? Let’s figure out the best timing for your situation!
