@hp100 , Since the FBAR reporting is based on the last day of the year, using the  YE exchange rate should not pose an issue .    The basis of the  inherited property is generally based on FMV at the time of death of the decadent or soon thereafter and so  using the FMV  on 09/02 is  close enough. From your post it sounds like there was an estate established ( probably with pour-over from the trust) and therefore  the transfer of the house was recorded to you on 09/08.  Assuming that all these  are during the year 2020 and you sold the property during the year, the  gain seems a bit surprising.   If indeed this is the case and true then the establishment of basis  on 09/02 would become suspect ---  5 months after death ( generally basis is assumed to move rather slowly).

Because this is a distribution from an estate there may be no requirement for  the form 3520 but  I do not know the whole scenario, nor do I know the country.

As far as the exchange rates used , it should pose no issue -- generally one uses the dollar of the day either market or what your bank gave  you.  Keep good records in order to sustain an audit (if)
