asked

My mother received a home in 1961 and it was placed in a trust with a life estate for her in 2019. The house is now being sold for $950,000, with net proceeds of approximately $750,000 after closing costs and mortgage payoff. How will capital gains taxes affect her, considering she does not know the initial value of the home but estimates it to be around $40,000?
