The 3.8% tax will apply to singles earning $200,000 or more who sell a primary residence where the profit is more than $250,000. The tax of 3.8% will apply for those people on the profit over $250,000. You do not add the profit to the income to see if you are over the $200,000 income level.
For a married couple earning $250,000 or more who sell a primary residence where the profit is more than $500,000, the 3.8% tax will apply to profit over $500,000. You will not add the profit to the income to see if it is over the $250,000 income level.
The 3.8% will apply to the profit on the sale of a VACATION home if your income including the profit from the sale exceeds $200,000 if you are single and $250,000 if you are married.
I am NOT an accountant but this is how I undertand it will be applied.
