Sale of Principal Residence Question

A single person owned and lived in a mobile home on a piece of land for several years as her principal residence. She got married and removed the mobile home and put in a new mobile home; her new husband moved in and they lived there not quite 2 years.

Although the homes changed but the location remained the same, do they still meet the 2 year time frame of occupancy to exclude gain?

They moved because she found a better job 300 mi. away.

Thanks.

As I recall, the new mobile home purchase reset the 2 year clock.

Then a partial gain exclusion applies.

Thanks for the reply. I couldn't find any reference to mobile homes in what I was looking at.
