Under the extended bright-line rule, if residential property is sold within 10 years of acquisition, income tax may be payable on any gain Exemptions from the 10 year bright-line test include new builds (albeit still subject to the previous 5 year bright-line test), inherited properties and the owner's main home Interest deductibility 1.
