    There are a lot of subdivisions in my area with the house being replaced with 2 double story townhouses that are about 24squares each and the development costs and sale prices seem to stack up.
    Im thinking of doing the same and keeping one to live in. Is there any capital gains tax if you sell one and move into the other or do you rent one out for a year while you live inthe 1st then move into the second or because you have lived there already its defferent.
