These are the two sources mentioned above, that talk about no cap gains tax when selling a personal residence. Trying to verify whether this is true in forum members' experience:

https://www.bowtiedmara.io/p/buying-property-in-argentina-part
"If the property is a your own personal residence, the sale is exempt from capital gains tax."

https://www.jebsen.com.ar/en/new-releases/taxation-in-argentina/
"The sale of real estate owned by individuals (except the dwelling house) is subject to tax and the applicable rate and taxable base depend on the purchase date of the property."

Yeah, even through it's an older thread, I bumped it since it seemed to have the most relevant comments about the law change in 2018 that added a new cap gains tax for real estate sales.

Was hoping @perry, @steveinbsas or another member might know from personal experience whether the sale of one's personal residence is exempt from that new capital gains tax. Cheers
