If you inherit a house is the value taxable?

The estate may have to pay federal and/or state estate taxes. If the state has an inheritance tax, the value of your share may be subject to inheritance tax.As far as income taxes go, the value of the house is not subject to income tax. But when you sell the house someday, you will have to pay tax on the difference between what the house was worth on the day of death and the sale price. Let's say the house was worth $100,000 on the day of death and five years later you sell it for $150,000. You will have to pay tax on $50,000. (If you use the house as a personal residence, you can take the usual exclusion for personal residences if you meet the qualifications.)For this reason, you need to know what the house was worth on the day of death. If the estate did not get it appraised, do it yourself as soon as possible. It is possible to get a retroactive appraisal, but the further back in time you go, the more difficult and expensive it gets. If the estate got it appraised, get and keep a copy of the paperwork.
