Have a question in this scenario
Daughter gives mother 40k cash in 2020
Mother uses that 40k gift to purchase a house for 650k. The rest of the 610k cash came from mother's savings and a previous house she sold.
Daughter moves in with mother in 2020 to new property.
Mother dies in 2022 , is there any tax implications because of the 40k given to mother , which daughter also benefits from by living in the house?

If this is a real case then the £40 would be better given as a loan, or the two of them should be joint owners.
Obviously daughter who made the gift of 40k is still alive
It may need to be declared when the daughter dies.
