Introduced
Summary
Eliminates the dollar limit on the tax exclusion for gains from selling a primary residence. This bill would amend Internal Revenue Code section 121 by removing the dollar-limit provisions and making conforming edits to subsection 121(c), so homeowners could exclude gains from the sale of their main home without a numeric cap. The change would apply to sales and exchanges after enactment.

Bigger home-sale tax exclusion for homeowners
If enacted, this bill would remove the dollar cap on the exclusion of gain when you sell your main home. For sales and exchanges after the date of enactment, you would be able to exclude more profit from your federal taxable income. This would lower the federal tax you pay if your gain is larger than the old limit.
