(Not a Tax Question?)

Estate Issue:
Sent to Tax Experts September 15 09:56 PM

Mother left to each of us four siblings her house in Will.   We have now put the home on the market to sell and is being listed at $279,900.00.   I understand we each will share in the capital gains tax which I have been told will be 20% for Federal and another 5% for the state of Rhode Island. Is that information correct? Do we pay these taxes at time of settlement?   Thank you for any information you can give us to shed light on this matter.   Regards, Linda
