Yes, you will need to report the inherited home sale and the related capital gains in the state were the property was located on a nonresident state return in that other state (if that state has a state income tax reporting requirement related to the sale of a capital real property asset.

If your home state also has a income tax reporting requirement, you will need to include this sale on your resident state income tax return. But will be able to take a state income tax credit in your state of residence for income (in this case a capital gain) that is also being taxed in another state.
