This is the first home my husband and I have owned, it's a condominium that was purchased 10 months ago. We just experienced a flood due to an improperly installed valve. We are selling the condo back to the builders (as it was brand new when purchased and this was VERY unforseen). We will be purchasing a new home and rolling all equity into it (there will be about $20,000 in equity with the buy-back due to current market value). Will we have to pay capital gains on the $20,000? Will this fall under "Unforseen Circumstances" and qualify for a lower exclusion? Or is there something else??? THANKS!
