Is there an one-time exemption from paying capital gain when selling a home?

There is no one-time exemption. But there is an exemption you can take as often as every two years. If you owned the house for two of the last five years and the house was your principle residence for two of the five years, there is a $250,000 exemption. If you file jointly and the house was also your spouse's principle residence for two of the previous five years, there is a $500,000 exemption. If you move for reasons beyond your control without meeting the time requirements, you may qualify for a reduced exemption.
