Understanding the Tax Burden on Inherited Assets
Inheriting property or financial assets from a loved one should be a blessing, not a financial burden. However, many families are caught off guard by the tax implications that come with their inheritance. From estate taxes to capital gains, failing to plan ahead can leave heirs facing unexpected financial strain.
If you’ve recently inherited assets or want to ensure your loved ones are protected from overwhelming tax liabilities, this guide will help you navigate the key tax considerations and strategies to minimize their impact.
Types of Taxes on Inherited Assets
It’s important to understand the types of taxes that may apply:
- Estate Tax – Federal or state taxes applied to the total value of a deceased person’s estate before assets are distributed.
- Inheritance Tax – Some states impose a tax on beneficiaries who receive inherited assets.
- Capital Gains Tax – If you sell an inherited property or asset that has appreciated in value, you may owe taxes on the profit.
- Income Tax – Certain inherited assets, like retirement accounts, may be subject to income tax when withdrawn.
