Question

Land and improvement values

I get the cost of the land. Turbotax asks for an improvement value. On my Tax Bill, the following numbers appear:

- LAND VALUE = 46,900

- BUILDING VALUE = 318,100

TOTAL VALUE = 365,000

ASSESSED VALUE = 146,000

What do I put on the turbotax "IMPROVEMENT VALUE".

Is the assessed value the improvement value? Or is it the building value? Or neither?

Fulton County:

Assessed value is 40% of the fair market value.

The improvement value is the value added to the land. In this case the $318,100 attributed to the house.

I am running into a wall. TurboTax is stating my cost basis is $374900.

based on my math, is the land is 46900 and the building 318100. The land is 12.85% and building 87.15%.

what I do next is take 374900 and only calculate the building portion (87.15) = 326725

however. Look at the attachments. The number is off. It’s showing $326715 rather than 326725
