Do I have to pay tax on money and property left by a deceased relative as unearned income?

If you are in the UK, you won't have any personal tax liability. The estate may be liable to Inheritance Tax. Are you the Executor? Sorting that is Executor's duty.
If you are only a beneficiary, the only tax liabilty would occur if you invest the money received from estate, and get interest on it. If the property is let, whoever inherits would have to pay tax on rental income. Before probate, it is still estate income, and not personal.
By the way, there are no tax allowances for estates. Tax has to be paid on all income before distribution to beneficiaries. If property is involved, solictor will need to be engaged.

No. You may have a liability as to IHT, Remember that the deceased spouse may have some unused IHT allowance even if he/she died some years ago.
You may have a liability to CGT when you sell the property, if there is a gain over the probate valuation.
If there is income from property, after the date of death , then the beneficiaries would probably have a tax liability on that.

Only if it is over $2,000,000 otherwise NO ESTATE TAX
Only if it was TAX DEFERRED before the person died, then you have to pay tax on it when you liquidate the asset

yes its called inheritance tax and its %40 on any amount over 拢250,000 and it is worked out on his world wide assests if he was a uk citizen
