I'd ask a lawyer. I'm pretty sure estimated costs and maintenance averages can be applied. I've known people who have sold their life-long residences in MA and not a one that I know has ever had to pay a penny in taxes.

Only person I know who ever had to pay taxes on a house sale like that was a friend who suddenly came into a lot of money and chose to sell their house (bought way undervalue and sold for much higher) before the 2 year residency mark that would trigger homestead protections.

And remember, if your'e selling something for hundreds of thousands of dollars there's always financial crap you gotta figure out. You always want an expert on your side telling you like it is.
