Investors & landlords
you are fine.... the idea behind the wash sale rule is the IRS doesn't want you to sell a stock just to reduce taxes only to buy it back again shortly thereafter.
Since you have a reported GAIN on the Feb 24 sale, the IRS is hungry to take your money on the capital gain! so wash sale rules do not apply.
for the shares purchased on March 2, if you sell them at a loss, any repurchase of these same shares within 30 days of the sale will trigger the wash sale rules
