I inherited a percentage of a property in 2023. We then sold this property in 2023. How do I put this in my return?

Was the place where you inherited your primary residence?

Investors and rental owners

No it wasn’t. It was a cottage that wasn’t being lived in. 

Investors and rental owners

Capital gains tax comes into play if you sell the inherited home, and only if the home increases in value between the time you inherit it and the time you sell it. You're on the hook for taxes on 50% of the amount of that increase. 

 

Did you rent out this cottage?

 

 

Investors and rental owners

Didn’t rent it out. I only owned 1/4 of it. How and where do I put this on my tax return?

Investors and rental owners

You will need to report it in schedule 3. We suggest you contact the CRA as they will be able to assist you with more information that you may need.
