Help with capital gains!

Hello all!
I'll try to keep this simple...
Parents own a property with a barn. Barn conversion started, one parent dies. Daughter aquires a small mortgage to complete and is named on the deeds. Capital gains on selling? What about the transfer of the property to her??

Any help much appreciated

    not enough detail here

    was the barn a separate property (with it's own deeds ) or part of a larger property

    whose names are on the mortgage
    whose names are on the deeds
    what type of ownership; joint tenant or tenants in common

    what was the value of the property when the daughter acquired an interest
    what is the value of the property now
    how much money was spend renovating the barn


    is anyone living in the barn now

    It was part of a larger property,
    Daughter sole name on the deeds and on the mortgage
    Parents had joint tenancy
    Value of barn at acquisition was 400k now valued at 450-500k.


    Roughly 250k labour and materials to renovate.

    Daughter is moving in this month

    Hope this helps

    Delete this thread and transfer the info to your other thread. Having 2 threads on the same issue is confusing and a waste of people's time!
