The transferee’s liability is limited to the fair market value of the property that was not protected.

 (c)  The arms length sale of the decedent’s real property at fair market value by the personal representative to a party unrelated to the decedent or the personal representative shall be deemed to be supported by valuable and adequate consideration.
