May 3, 2023 at 18:24 comment added jpaugh Your question title is misleading. You don't want to buy your house below market value (as your title implies). You want to buy it at current market value. Get a new appraisal, and get your story straight. The cash value of your home has changed since you inherited it, so you and your sister have both already lost some of the value you expected to gain from the inheritance of this property. Your sister should not hold the market trends against you, as soon as she gets past the emotional distress of having (already) lost cash value.

Improve wording and grammar
May 2, 2023 at 6:44 comment added gerrit Surely selling the house, even to yourself, would be involved with a lot of extra fees?

May 1, 2023 at 15:43 comment added CGCampbell I don't understand how you are 1. selling the house, 2. buying it then yourself, 3. then paying your sister out of the proceeds of the sale. Even considering the house is owned by a trust, this sounds too much like powering your sailboat with a fan you are holding.

Added important context from a comment by OP (see comments on https://money.stackexchange.com/a/156700/32428)
May 1, 2023 at 15:24 comment added user26460 @Mark That would be the sister's prerogative to ask, wouldn't it?
May 1, 2023 at 15:08 comment added Barmar I wonder if your estimate of the value is correct, though. Redfin shows that CA property values dropped from Nov to Jan, but have since rebounded and they were a little higher in Mar than Nov. You really should get an appraisal to be sure.
May 1, 2023 at 14:50 comment added Barmar @rooby Not wrong at the time, but property values have dropped in the 6 months since (property values generally go down when mortgage rates rise).
May 1, 2023 at 14:35 comment added DKNguyen If you were your sister, would you buy your own argument and sell your share to her for less than the appraised price?

Apr 30, 2023 at 19:17 comment added Mark If the house was currently worth more than the appraised value would be asking how to pay your sister a higher amount?
Apr 30, 2023 at 18:55 comment added littleadv How much do you value your relationship with your sister?
