      One other thing. I do not have a copy of the settlement sheet.
      But my thinking is that the difference between the sales and the net amount received
      would be the selling cost. Am I still thinking correct?

        Investment or personal

        If anyone was using the home between date of death and sale the loss is personal and not allowed. Also, I hope you have an appraisal of the FMV on date of death. You will need it if audited. We had one so we were home free. If the seller does not have one he should get it now not 2 years from now.

          Probably but not necessarily. Amounts could be held back to clear liens or for other purposes that wouldn't be deductible or adjustments.

            get the settlement statement or you won't be able to justify your figures if asked.
            Believe nothing you have not personally researched and verified.
