Does the recipent have to pay gift tax when given a house?

No, the recipient NEVER pays gift tax. Gifts are not income and not taxable. However, the person GIVING you the gift may have to pay gift tax on the value of the house that exceeds the annual exclusion of $15,000. They may be better off gifting you a partial ownership over several years, where each part is worth less than $15,000. If the gift is from your spouse, there is no gift tax.

You don't pay income tax on the receipt of the gift. However, if the gift consists of property that has gone up in value, you may have a taxable capital gain when you sell or dispose of the gift.
