Report inherited home sale proceeds (even without a 1099-S) by calculating capital gains on Schedule D (Form 1040) and Form 8949, using the property's fair market value at the date of death as the cost basis. The gain is generally the difference between the sale price and this "stepped-up" basis, often resulting in little to no tax if sold quickly.   Where do I enter the sale of a second home, an inherited home, or land?
