Respected Experts

Please help me in solving this issue:

Assessee sold a urban land earlier and purchased a house property (A) and that time as per law he took benefit of sec 54f.
Now in PY 2012-13 assessee sold another urban land and now want to purchase another house property (B) for taking benefit of sec 54F.

Facts are:
1.Resedential house property A is 2 year old but not 3 year.
2.Assess has only house A for his resident purpose now.

My Query are:

1.can assessee claim benefit of 54F by acquiring house property B...
2.if assessee has to hold till 3 year for selling out House property A..
if not then any other alternative for getting deduction of 54F.

and what is the time limit for the same..
Thanks in Advance
