Was the seller holding this property as an investment? does he plan on replacing the property with another investment property? If so, he may be able to defer any capital gains in the property by doing a 1031 exchange.
Sounds like you are doing all the work for him to sell his property. You may advise him to talk to a cpa or real estate attorney to determine, as poodle said, what is basis is and what taxes he may incur.

I know it was family land and on the accessors page his dad bought the lot for 30k then donated it to him. So 30K would be the basis.
And no it wasn't an investement property it was gonna be used for his home, hes decided to build elsewhere.
