Ven House For Sale

[Ortiz Ullery]

If you have a capital gain from the sale of your main home, you may qualify to exclude up to $250,000 of that gain from your income, or up to $500,000 of that gain if you file a joint return with your spouse. Publication 523, Selling Your Home provides rules and worksheets. Topic no. 409 covers general capital gain and loss information.

In general, to qualify for the Section 121 exclusion, you must meet both the ownership test and the use test. You're eligible for the exclusion if you have owned and used your home as your main home for a period aggregating at least two years out of the five years prior to its date of sale. You can meet the ownership and use tests during different 2-year periods. However, you must meet both tests during the 5-year period ending on the date of the sale. Generally, you're not eligible for the exclusion if you excluded the gain from the sale of another home during the two-year period prior to the sale of your home. Refer to Publication 523 for the complete eligibility requirements, limitations on the exclusion amount, and exceptions to the two-year rule.

If you receive an informational income-reporting document such as Form 1099-S, Proceeds From Real Estate Transactions, you must report the sale of the home even if the gain from the sale is excludable. Additionally, you must report the sale of the home if you can't exclude all of your capital gain from income. Use Schedule D (Form 1040), Capital Gains and Losses and Form 8949, Sales and Other Dispositions of Capital Assets when required to report the home sale. Refer to Publication 523 for the rules on reporting your sale on your income tax return.

If you or your spouse are on qualified official extended duty in the Uniformed Services, the Foreign Service or the intelligence community, you may elect to suspend the five-year test period for up to 10 years. An individual is on qualified official extended duty if for more than 90 days or for an indefinite period, the individual is:

If you sold your home under a contract that provides for all or part of the selling price to be paid in a later year, you made an installment sale. If you have an installment sale, report the sale under the installment method unless you elect out. Even if you use the installment method to defer some of the gain, the exclusion of gain under Section 121 remains available. Refer to Publication 537, Installment Sales, Form 6252, Installment Sale Income, and Topic no. 705, Installment sales, for more information on installment sales.

Real estate excise tax (REET) is a tax on the sale of real property. All sales of real property in the state are subject to REET unless a specific exemption is claimed. The seller of the property typically pays the real estate excise tax, although the buyer is liable for the tax if it is not paid. Unpaid tax can become a lien on the transferred property.

Effective Jan. 1, 2020, sales of real property are subject to a graduated rate structure for the state portion of REET. However, sales of real property classified as "agricultural land" or "timberland" will remain subject to a flat rate of 1.28% for the state portion of REET.

Land classifications are assigned by the county assessor in which the property is located. Agricultural land must be classified as defined in RCW 84.34.020. Timberland must be classified under RCW 84.34 or designated under RCW 84.33. These classifications include the structures on such land. For REET purposes, real property is only considered for the flat state tax rate if the buyer indicates it will continue to use the land in a qualifying manner and the county assessor approves the land for such continued use. The county assessor must sign the Notice of Continuance in section 6 of the affidavit.

If the sale requires completion of the predominate use worksheet and also has parcels in multiple location codes, you must first complete the predominate use worksheet for all parcels involved in the entire sale. This will determine the rate for the state portion of REET for the entire sale. You will then complete the multiple locations affidavit for each county in which property is located and include both worksheets with the affidavit.

On a controlling interest transfer, REET payment must be postmarked within five days from the date of transfer. Penalties and interest are due if the tax is not postmarked within one month of the date of sale.

Attention: If the affidavit and deed are mailed to the Department of Revenue in error, it could delay the filing at the county and penalties and interest may apply as the result of failure to follow instructions.

There are limited specific exemptions available for REET. To claim an exemption, list the exemption code in section 7 of the REET Affidavit. The exemption code must reference the Washington Administrative Code (WAC) including the section and subsection.

If claiming a gift exemption, a completed REET Supplemental Statement is required and must be submitted with the affidavit. The section and subsection claimed is based on the selection chosen on the supplemental statement.

Taxpayers may request a refund of REET paid. The request must be filed within four years of the date of sale and must include documents to support the refund claim. An overpayment can only be refunded to the party who originally submitted the payment. Proof of payment must be provided showing the identity of the original payor.

The real estate excise tax applies to transfers of real property when the grantee relieves the grantor from an underlying debt on the property or makes payments on the grantor's debt. The measure of the tax is the combined amount of the underlying debt on the property and any other consideration. WAC 458-61A-103(1)

A controlling interest transfer occurs when there is a 50% or more change of ownership in an entity. If that entity owns real property in Washington, a controlling interest transfer return is required to be completed within 5 days of the completed transfer. Penalties and interest will apply if the return is not postmarked within 30 days of the completed transfer.

A single location transfer means a transfer in which the property is located in one local jurisdiction code. This may be a single parcel or multiple parcels as long as all parcels are in the same local jurisdiction. For sales in a single local jurisdiction, complete the Single Location Affidavit.

A multiple location transfer involves the transfer of multiple properties in different local jurisdiction codes. This includes parcels in the same county but different local jurisdictions within the county. For sales in multiple local jurisdictions, complete the Multiple Locations Affidavit and Worksheet. A separate affidavit with a copy of the worksheet must be completed and remitted to each county.

Notice is hereby given that all real properties described on the list below, for which real property taxes or vault rents (including penalties and interest, if applicable) were levied and in arrears on October 1, 2023, for which Business Improvement District (BID) taxes (including penalties and interest, if applicable) were levied and in arrears before September 1, 2023, or for which any other tax certified to the Office of Tax and Revenue (OTR) for collection hereunder remains unpaid, shall be sold at public auction to the highest bidder at the 2024 Real Property Tax Sale (Sale).

The stated amount for which a real property may be offered for sale can be lower than what an owner would have to pay in order to prevent the real property from being sold. Owners must contact OTR to determine the amount that must be paid in order to avoid the sale of their real properties. Purchasers must be aware that additional liabilities, which are not reflected in the total amount for which the real properties are offered at the Sale, may be due and owing on real properties and such additional liabilities may include liens previously sold to a third party. A purchaser at the Sale acts at his or her own risk and must exercise due diligence in selecting real properties upon which to bid in good faith.

A certificate of sale shall be canceled if, inter alia, it is later determined that the delinquent taxes, including accrued interest and penalties, were satisfied before the end of the last day of the Sale. The date of sale of any real property shall be deemed to be the last day of the Sale, regardless of the actual day of the Sale during which the real property was offered and sold. The certificates of sale shall indicate the date of sale as being the last day of the Sale.
