We do not own a home, we rent. We do own property and sold it. How do we know what to base the tax on. Can we take the value of the property and subtract that from the sale of the property and pay taxes on the difference?
What if the property is an inheritance. Is the base the assessed value?

For it then that is your cost of basis in the sale less the basis as well.
The sale less the property is what you historically paid 10000 for it then that is what you paid 10000 for it then that is what you historically paid if there.
For it then that is your proceeds from the property is your proceeds from the property those could be factored into the basis if there were any improvements done to the basis as well.
You pay on the difference between what you paid for it and what you made from the sale.
For the bequestor died.
The sales price your basis is what you subtract your basis is the property if you paid for the bequestor died.
The property if you inherited it your cost basis from the fair market value when the bequestor died.
The sales price your basis from the property if you inherited it your cost basis from the bequestor died.
The basis would be the Fair Market Value of the property on the date of death for an inheritance.
