My understanding of a rental used as personal home in 2 of the last 5 years before sale,is that it qualifies as your personal home and there are no tax consequences for any gain to $250,000 or $500,000 for a couple. I believe this applys here.
NO, the interest/taxes/insurance/cost of repairs should have been deducted on Schedule E IF this house has been a rental. And dont' forget to account for depreciation allowed or allowable when computing the gain.
