Quick basis question


ILLMAS

Recommended Posts

TP took over parents zero basis investment property, TP put in over $160K to fix up the rental property and the property is now worth around 400-500K, TP plans on buying out the parents for around 80-100K the value of the property before the improvements.  Parents are willing to wait until he comes up with the buyout money or do an IOU, can the TP increase their basis by the buyout money if the haven’t paid it yet?

 Does TP currently have any ownership in property?

Not unless there is a legal and binding contact / note.

Why do parent's have zero basis?

Sounds like this transaction would be a partial sale / partial gift since the fmv is greater than the consideration given.
