Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You are selling personal items and would only have to report the income if you received more than they were worth when you inherited them. That amount would be the market value at the time of death of the decedent. You cannot deduct a net loss. As a practical matter assume that your income equals the value of the items you received so no income would be reported. Since you are not in the business of selling the items you can’t deduct expenses
