Trump Considers Eliminating Capital Gains Tax on Home Sales

President Trump has suggested considering the elimination of capital gains taxes on home sales, which could benefit homeowners with significant gains, especially long-term owners in high-value markets. Currently, exemptions allow up to $250,000 (single) or $500,000 (married) in gains tax-free, but inflation and rising home prices mean more homeowners may face taxes. If enacted, this change could favor wealthier, long-term homeowners, particularly in expensive markets, and potentially influence housing market dynamics.
