What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Illinois
I have a home I inherited from my father when he passed away last October. My father and I are listed on the deed as “joint tenants and not as tenants in common.” No other siblings are on the deed. My fathers wishes were for me to sell the house and split the monies between my siblings. I have five other siblings and am currently trying to sell the house. Am I going to have to bare all of the tax burden or will the tax implication be spread to the other siblings when the house is sold and they receive their share? Will there even be a tax burden?
