The estate inherited the assets from the decedent. If you got a 1099-S for the sale of the house, it should be reported on the 1041 for the estate. The Executor is responsible for filing the 1041.
Unless you have a houseful of Picassos and Rembrandts, that stuff doesn't normally get reported anywhere since there typically isn't any gain involved.
No I meant for the sale of the actual house by the estate and NOT the beneficiary be considered "inherited" and therefore automatically qualify as a long term sale? Can an estate actually inherit property?
