The house has children. The value of assets was higher than the actual selling price. It was noted editions. It can be concluded from this?

  1. Not all losses are deductible. In general, losses on transactions that have no income or produce goods that are not deductible. Sell your car ands loss is not deductible.

    Inherit a house itself is not the case, the property or income-producing property. Without any additional information that is inconsistent with the above posts so convinced that the loss is deductible, agrees. If the children move into the house and make it his residence? A loss of a personal residence is not deductible.

    If the house was empty and the expenses incurred to sell and sold at a loss, was shot in the hip, I'd say it would be a capital loss that the income of the children in proportion to their shareholding could be applied.

    Consult a tax advisor!

  2. Yes, in order to establish a base (value) for the house on the market and put their money. The network of its base above or below your product is the profit or loss. This is the sale of an asset.

  3. James is absolutely right! I wonder about the valuation of goods or the price list. It smells bad here.
