My fiance and I both own our houses. When we get married, we intend to sell both houses and buy a new one to move in together. Of course, there's a good chance that the timing won't work out between buying and selling houses. I want to avoid any capital gain issues (or any other tax issues, for that matter). What do I need to watch for? If my house sells early, how long can I "sit" on the proceeds of the sale before I have to invest it in a new house? What other "gotchas" do I need to be aware of?
