What is the name of your state? Virginia
My mom passed away 3 months ago leaving a house to me and my two other brothers.
She bought it 15 years ago for $100K and all is paid off. The house is now on the market for sale now and we are selling it for $370K.
What is tax implication here?
1. Do we have to pay inheritance tax based on $100K or $370K?
2. Do we have to pay capital gains tax for $270K subject to 15% to 30% tax brackets?
3. Do we have to pay inheritance tax first and then capital gains tax, based on after-inheritance-tax-deduction?
Please, offer me your sincere insights.
I will contact a CPA in a few weeks but I need to have a general idea right now.
