The deceased died several years ago. The property situated was the deceased's main residence for the whole of their ownership period. The property was not used to produce assessable income. Probate was granted later in the same year. The property was less than 2 hectares. The deceased gave their long term housemate and friend a life interest in the property under the will. The friend was able to live there until they died or vacated the property. A few years later, the friend gave notice that they were vacating the property. In that same year, the property was transferred into your name as beneficiary of the property under the will. Due to the government lockdowns you were not able to travel to organise the property for sale. Early in the following year, the property was advertised for sale. The property sold at Auction a couple of months later. Settlement occurred within a few weeks.
