How the Tax Code Taxes Your Home Sale in 2026
from The Tax Policy Podcast with Fexingo: Income Tax, Corporate Tax, and Fiscal Conversations · host Fexingo
In this episode of The Tax Policy Podcast, Lucas and Luna explore the $250,000 capital gains exclusion on home sales. They unpack how the exclusion works, who qualifies, and the 2026 twist: the recent surge in home prices means more sellers are hitting the exclusion cap. They walk through a concrete example of a Bay Area couple selling their home and facing a tax bill, and they discuss the debate over whether the exclusion should be reformed. Tune in to understand the tax rules that could affect your next home sale and why policymakers are eyeing this break. #HomeSaleTax #CapitalGainsExclusion #TaxPolicy #RealEstateTax #IRS #HousingMarket #BayAreaRealEstate #TaxReform #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #TaxPodcast #FiscalPolicy #Homeowners #CapitalGains #TaxCode #HousingBubble #TaxPlanning Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
