Inherited Home

I inherited my aunts home when she passed away back in November 2021. Before she passed there was a transfer death deed signed and filed with the county. I sold the property in June of 2022. What do I need in order to file my taxes this year. I was told that a comparison market analysis would work, but just wanted to make sure I have everything before I go in.

Capital Gains Tax

I owned my home for less than two years. I know I’ll have to pay capital gains tax on that profit, but can I still deduct things like home improvements and real estate agent commissions from that profit even though I didn’t own it for two years?

Contest winning: question

I won a $10,000 contest in 2022, but only received a portion of it, $3,250 of it (prizes only, not cash) while still in the year 2022. My question: do I pay taxes on the full $10,000, or only the $3,250, since I didn't receive the full prize value yet? Thank you

Schedule E

Schedule E questions! Hi everyone! I have a condo I bought in 2016 and started renting at the end of 2021. For the depreciation part on the schedule E, is my understanding correct that I would divide by 27.5 based on my building value from the 2016 assessment?( since the assessment is higher now) As an example if my building assessment in 2016 was 44,300 Would this equate to $1610.9 depreciation for 27.5 years? Or am I understanding wrong. Thank you!
