How would that be handled and who would enforce the "law/policy"???:undecided:

As I understand the rules on selling your home in less than a year, you will be penalized if you sell at a profit. There is a home like ours which is a brand new model now listed currently in Pennecamp. The buyer closed one month and listed it the next because she learned that her retirement plans had changed...I was told. She cannot make a profit on the house. It has to be listed at what she paid for it or below that amount because it is less than a year.

These rules are to prevent flipping. And using this hometown for an investment turn around grab your profit site. Those Morses have it figured out.

If you take the homestead tax exemption, can you sell, say, in one year?
