Basis for inherited property
Grandfather willed a farm to my mother, "for her natural life" after which he directed it go to her children. He died in 1977. Mom kept and ran the farm from 1977 until her death in 2020. Children sold the farm in 2022. For the purpose of determining capital gains, is our tax "basis" the value at the time of grandfather's death in 1977 or the value at the time of mother’s passing?
