I'm not sure if I need to pay capital gains tax when I sell my house in Canada. I've heard different things from different sources, and it's really confusing. Could you please clarify the situation for me? I've lived in this house for a number of years, and now I'm considering selling it. Do I need to worry about paying tax on the profit I make from the sale? And if so, how much tax would I have to pay? Also, are there any exceptions or exemptions that might apply to my situation? Thank you for your help in answering my questions. Do I have to pay capital gains tax when I sell my house Canada?

To qualify for the principal residence exemption, certain conditions need to be met. The home must have been occupied as the seller's main residence for the entire period of ownership.

If the home was not continuously used as a principal residence, the exemption may be partially or completely lost. In such cases, the seller may be required to pay capital gains tax on the profit made from the sale.

When selling a home, the tax implications depend on various factors. If the property was the seller's principal residence for all the years of ownership, there's a possibility of exemption from capital gains tax.

The principal residence exemption is a tax relief granted to individuals who sell their main home. This exemption removes the need to pay tax on any profit made from the sale.
