Someone else can share thoughts on the taxability of your mother's home. But if she had over $4700 of income (including the proceeds of the sale of that home) then you cannot claim her as a dependent.
Is your mother a U.S. resident alien? If so, she is subject to the same tax laws as a U.S. citizen, which would mean that she must report her worldwide income from all sources, that is, income from both within and outside the United States.
