We purchased a house from a family member,had lots of work done on it, then sold it and made a profit.How much taxes do we pay? Can we claim the work done on it?
Do we pay on the profits made after all that we spent on the house and yard?

You can subtract all of your expenses from the profits but it is best to contact a tax attorney to insure you follow all fed and local requirements
