Yes, if the house is worth more than the annual $15,000 (in 2012) exclusion for gifts to anyone other than your spouse. Your tax attorney may help you structure the transfer over several years to avoid owing any gift tax.

If a person purchases a car for you as a gift how do you keep the gift if the person dies?

If the person who died didnt put the title in your name, (in which case it wasn't a gift to you, but just them allowing you to use their car) the car becomes part of the decedents estate.

When does a cash gift become income?

When it really isn't a gift. There is a myth out there that by giving a taxable payment a creative name, it can be treated as a gift. For example, if an employer gives his staff a check as a "token of his affection" for meeting their sales goals, it is still not a gift. Or if a neighbor gives you a thank-you $20 bill everytime you mow his lawn, it is still not a gift. I suppose a gift from illegal activities might be taxable. For example, if a bank robber gives a bank teller a gift for not identifying him in a line up, that might be taxable. Or an embezzler splits his loot with the people who fed him inside information, that might be taxable.

What is the difference between an estate tax and a gift tax?

Estate taxes are the taxes imposed on a decedents estate, whether state, federal or both) to remove the property out of the decedents name and placed into a living beneficiary's name. A gift tax is a tax on any gifted amount over the maximum lifetime gifts made by an individual from their estate to another party. This gift tax is paid by the individual giving the gift, not the person receiving the gift. The federal amount per person for a gift changes and you must keep note of this, however this gifted amount can be given each year to any number of people with no gift tax so long as it is under the maximum life amount for gifting under the uniform gifting code.
