Do I Owe Pennsylvania Inheritance Tax?

Posted on Wed Feb 11, 2015, on Probate and Estate Administration

My mother transferred her Montgomery County home to me two years ago. She recently died. I am going to sell the house soon, but do I have to pay Pennsylvania Inheritance Tax?

Not in your case. The Pennsylvania Inheritance Tax of 4.5% applies to transfers to children at death, and includes all gifts made within one year of the date of death. If the house was transferred properly into your name two years ago, it will not be subject to the Pennsylvania Inheritance Tax.
