| Can I discount the value of real property held by an estate to account for built in capital gains?
We are currently in the process of valuing an estate that consists primarily of ownership interests in partnerships owning commercial real estate assets. Many of these assets have been owned by the decedent for 10-30 years. We are currently having discount studies prepared to account for lack of marketability and lack of control discounts. In researching another issue, I came across a body of tax law (Estate of Jelke III v. Comr., 507 F.3d 1317(11th Cir. 2007)) that referred to a dollar for dollar discount available for holders of stock in C-corporations to account for the capital gains tax liability on the date of death. I would like to apply this logic to my situation and discount the value of the real property in the estate by capital gains liability. I'm having trouble tracking down precedent for doing this.
