Tax time question for you now. When mom passed away, the home was left to three siblings. 12 years later, one has gifted his shares to the other two siblings, the LLC has been dissolved and sister has bought out my shares. Over the years the % of ownership has tilted in favor of the remaining sibling, so brother and myself now owned around 27% each, with sister owning 46% of the home.
Here is a short explanation from the Attorney of how this went.
This is the email I received from the attorney last week:
I have been pondering your situation and I think the best way to proceed is as follows:
1. Brother disassociates from the LLC (resigns) which would require all three Members to execute a Resolution. The Resolution would indicate that Brother is gifting his equity in his capital account to you and sister.
2. An amended annual report is filed with the Secretary of State showing only you and sister the Members.
3. The LLC transfers the Property to you and sister tenants in common.
4. You and sister execute a basic purchase and sale agreement whereby sister sells the property to you. I would include details regarding the transfer in the excise tax affidavit and the purchase and sale agreement. The Department of Revenue will likely take a hard look at the transaction and we want to make sure they have all of the information needed when we file the excise tax affidavit.
5. File Certificate of Dissolution of LLC with Secretary of State.
My question is on my stepped-up basis. Is it now:
1) 1/3 of the value at TOD, or
2) 27% + 13.5% (half of brothers) = 40.5% of the value at TOD?
