Need help with splitting the assets of the will of a deceased parent. Parent split all assets (home and $ in accounts) 70/30 between me and a sibling of mine. My 30% is worth more than the $ in my parents accounts, thus I have some % of what the house is worth. My sibling would like to keep the house, but pay out a lump sum and basically buy me out of my 30%. If we were to do that, would the money I receive be taxed? Or considered inheritance which I don't believe is taxed in my state?
