Surviving spouse dies with a rental property in her estate. Valued at $630,000 at date of death. Asset is distributed out as tennants in common to beneficiaries 7 months later. One of the beneficiary buys it at that time from the others, when the appraised value has reduced to $585,000. Do the other beneficaries have a loss they can realize?

Hello, Anonymous,

Yes, it sounds like a capital loss to me.

If the buying and selling beneficiaries are related, you need to make sure you don't run afoul of IRC Section 267.
