Recently I sold my primary house ( it was rented about 40% of the house while we were living inside for 10 years) in California and bought a new primary house in Washington state. I did remodeling before sell the old house (capital gain exceeded 500K ), the new house I bought have many broken area which I have to replace and improve. Can I add these cost to the cost base for both old house and new house?
For the old house: remodeling cost before the sell was about 20K-30K, can I add these cost to the old house cost base?
For the new house: the furnace and central air conditioning are broken, roof and gutters are leaking, garage opening and gas cooktop are broken, . I have to replace these hardware with new and different model, can I add these cost to the cost base for my new house?
