Inheritance & Estate
“I inherited a business, how does that affect my taxes?”
Inheriting a business can affect taxes in several ways, and the details often depend on the business structure, the date of death value, and how the business is later operated or sold. In many cases, the tax treatment can differ for a sole proprietorship, partnership interest, S corporation shares, or LLC membership interest. Recordkeeping around asset values, liabilities, payroll, and any income received after the inheritance can also matter. Estate tax, income tax, and capital gains questions may overlap, especially if the business continues running or is transferred again. A focused session can map this against your actual situation in plain English.
In your 60-minute session, the KGOB advisor handling it will:
- Read your exact situation and tell you, in plain English, what’s actually going on.
- Lay out your options and the trade-offs — no jargon, no judgment.
- Give you a clear next step you can act on, whether that’s with us or on your own.
