"until it was sold on SEP 2023"

Uh, no. That's tax planning, since it hasn't happened yet.

"Again...appreciate the assist!"

You don't seem to be using the software in use by this community, though.

You don't bring these personal issues to the internet. That's why you should get expert tax guidance in person. Not from an internet community. You don't even seem to know where you landed on the internet.
