Capital Gain

[minibebu]

What is the name of your state?WA

I am selling my home and I have lived there for 1.5 years. Moving to shorten the distance of my drive to work by 20 miles. What do I get to subtract from the sales price before IRS figures out what my gain is?
Do I get to deduct excise/transfer tax?
Do I get to deduct agent's commission?
Do I get to deduct any closing cost that I would be paying for the buyer?
