I. Louise, who died in 2015, was survived by her husband, Luis. Louise and Luis husband owned their home as tenants in common. The fair market value of the home on the date of Louise's death was $750,000. Louise provided all of the consideration for the purchase.

With respect to the vacation home, $100,000 is includible in Jeff's gross estate for federal estate tax purposes.

The terms of the trust provided that all trust income was to be paid to his wife (who survived him) for her life in at least annual installments.
