Investors & landlords

for the years you were renting it, you should have been taking depreciation.  you now have a mess on your hands.   because the depreciation you were suppose to take but didn't is subject to recapture upon sale of the property.

since rent free to a family member, this would probably be regarded as personal use and the loss would not be deductible.  however you could have a gain  -  sales price less cost of sale less: cost of home reduced by the depreciation you should have taken 

seek professional help, since TT can't handle your situation.
