In Florida, what if, any tax concequences may apply, when someone with a Life Estate vacates the residence.?

Answered by attorney Astrid de Parry
Estate Planning lawyer at Bryant de Parry, P.A.
A person's "homestead" is where they permanently reside. Typically, it is the responsibility of the life tenant to pay the taxes. You should consult with an elder law attorney in your area. He or she can review the deed, and the specific facts and assist you with the matter.

What will my tax obligation be on an inherited home?

Answered by attorney Brian Chew
Estate Planning lawyer at OC Wills and Trust Attorneys
In general, you do not want to be gifted a home that has gone up in value since your parents bought it. If they do give it to you and you sell it at a later date, you will pay capital gains tax on the difference between what you sell it for and what your parents paid for it. If you inherit the property through a will (subject to probate) or better yet a living trust (no probate), your basis (what the IRS considered you paid for the property) in the property will be whatever the property is worth when you Mom passes and thus if you sell it, you will owe little if any capital gain tax (unless the property goes up in value after your Mom passes).

Our home, should it be in our trust

Christopher Kennedy Caswell
Answered by attorney Christopher Kennedy Caswell (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Christopher K. Caswell, P.A.
There are two separate issues here. First of all, any improvements built on jointly held land belong to the jointly held land. Therefore, I do not understand the circumstances where your husband could build a house in his "name". Perhaps he borrowed the money only under his name, but that does not mean that the house is in his name. Second, in Florida it is sometimes a complex situation as to whether or not a principal residence should be held in a trust or trusts. Opinions differ among attorneys, so I would strongly urge you to consult with competent legal counsel who can evaluate and advise you about your complete estate plan and then give you advice. There are many facts and circumstances that can affect that decision. This is specific to Florida law and does not constitute legal advice as the facts presented are anonymous and incomplete. This is intended for general education only and does not create an attorney-client relationship. This should not be relied on and you must seek your own attorney client relationship.
