It should be the date of death of the person you inherited from. Inherited assets are always considered long term no matter how short the holding period was in the hands of the deceased. The step-up cost basis also applies to most of the inherited assets with some exceptions. So the cost basis of the inherited home should be the fair market value on the date of death.
