does the person turning over the house to you have to pay taxes on it

My mother is turning over a house to me that is in her trust fund. Does she have to pay any taxes on it through a quick claim deed?

welcome to mortgagefit...

In my advice you can set up a new trust and ask your mom to transfer the property to that trust so in future you will be saved from paying extra taxes.

This is a nice option as far as saving taxes is concerned.

keep in touch....

Hi rdtack,

If your mother transfers the house to you through a quitclaim deed, she will have to pay certain taxes and fees. As a grantor, she will have to pay recordation and stamp doc fees. If she transfers the property as a gift, she will be liable to pay gift taxes. However, there are annual and life time gift tax exemptions which she can avail to reduce the burden of taxes.
