Deductions & credits

Since your aunt is essentially selling you the property for $60,000 less than fair market value, she is giving you a gift to that extent ($60,000), which exceeds the annual gift tax exclusion of $18,000 (for 2024).

 

As a result, she will need to file a gift tax return.

However, unless she exceeds her lifetime exclusion amount of $13.61 million (for 2024), she will not owe any gift tax.
