Nope, your gain is still $200K. Financing has NOTHING to do with gain. If it were that easy EVERYONE would refinance for FMV prior to selling and reduce their tax liability to ZERO.

I am confused how refinancing the property affects the adjusted basis. For example:

Adjusted basis-100,000
Adjusted Sales Price-300,000
Realized Tax Gain-200,000

Now say I took cash out of the property in the amount 50,000. Is my realized gain $150,000 instead of 200K?
