My client sold her husband's home as admin of the estate. At the time of death, it was their personal residence. I am assuming the Estate inherited the property and sold the home a year later while still in probate.
The sale generated a loss and I am wanting to confirm that the beneficiaries can claim the losses on the K-1 they recieve, correct? I have heard that because they lived in it after it went into probate, there will not be any losses to claim. What is the correct scenario?
Thanks for any advice.
