You are correct. Since the rental property is located in CT, the income is CT source income which requires that the estate file a CT tax return. If you are the administrator of the estate and also located in MA, then you have to file a MA return. If you are in a different state you need to check the rules for that state. Some states require that you must file a state return if the administrator is located in the state. If you are in MA, you will file a MA resident tax return and a CT non-resident tax return. Both states will tax the income and MA will give you a credit for the tax paid to CT. The credit may be less than the tax paid to CT.
