Yiou cannot defer the capital gain, since you are not doing a Like Kind Exchange. A rental cannot be exchanged for a personal residence.

Is it a rental property?

Yes. It is a townhouse that my parents originally purchased (my parents continued to live there after transferring title to my brother and me and paid monthly rent).

Thank you. I have not yet completed the purchase for the other real estate property (which I intend to use as my primary residence). I have also not yet signed the contract to sell the current property that my brother and I own.
