Question: is capital gains from real estate sale counted as part of modified adjusted gross income for ROTH IRA?
Answer: Yes.
Your modified adjusted gross income is just adjusted gross income with some things added back in. And Capital gains are part of adjusted gross income.
Keep in mind that real estate has special rules and although – to you capital gains are one number, the rules for figuring it out have little to do with reality.
If it was a rental property then you have depreciation to consider also if you used part of your home as a home office deduction, if you lived there you get a certain amount before you have to start counting it, if you didn’t own it for long enough you will get screwed. If you do a 1031 exchange you can put off the whole thing until later. If you die the taxes can be avoided all together for those that inherit it if done right.
