Hi gang,
I'm stuck in the crosshair between ACA, AGI, and capital gains tax. Didn't expect the house prices to be that crazy!
The scenario;
- Just sold our house and after-sales expenses, basis, adjusted basis, and $500k capital gains deduction I will have a gain of $72k.
- Will get a W-2 for $27k for this year.
- Likely some profit from a side business of ~$18k.
I can;
- Contribute another $3.1k to HSA before it's maxed out.
- Contribute $14k to IRA (for me and DW).
I'm trying to avoid the ACA cliff and would like to keep the AGI to $64k or less.
Any suggestions?
One idea was to offer the home buyer a delayed down, $36k, to be paid in January next year.
Did anyone try something like that?
Edit: corrected $64k from $34k
