Do I owe capital gains tax when I sell my long-held Johns Island home?
A long-held Johns Island home can owe capital gains tax once your appreciation exceeds the federal exclusion available to owners who meet the residency requirement. A longer hold usually means a larger gain to account for. Confirm your specific liability with a CPA so the listing reflects what you will actually net.
