asked

Regarding the sale of a property held in joint tenancy by unmarried partners who are single filers, one of whom paid all the purchase costs including the mortgage and down payment, is it more tax advantageous to repay the principal and down payment from the sale proceeds before calculating capital gains, or to split the sales proceeds and taxable gain 50/50? Additionally, how should legal bills and court fees be handled in this scenario?
