This discussion concerns the capital gains tax implications when selling land and a building. The seller purchased the land in 1987 and incurred significant expenses on building construction over several years. The key question is whether these improvement costs can be claimed against capital gains. It's suggested that the cost of improvement can be considered based on the Fair Market Value as of April 1st, 2001.
