Kendra and Lloyd get married on July 1, 2022 and will file jointly in 2022. Both of them owned a home prior to marriage, but they agree that they wish to no live together in one of the homes. Kendra’s home was purchased on September 1, 2021 for $270,000 and is now worth $290,000. Lloyd’s home was purchased in 2018 for $170,000 and is now worth $215,000.

They also plan to start having children in two or three years and expect to have to move into a larger home than either of their existing homes now. Describe the possible alternatives available to Kendra and Lloyd with respect to excluding the gain on the sale of the homes.
