Filed with incorrect 1099 check box

I just filed my tax return and had checked Yes to "

Did you make any payments in 2018 that would require you to file Form(s) 1099" because Turbotax told me any payments over $600 needed one and I had paid 

around

 $1000 to my neighbor to manage our rental property while we were away. In trying to figure out how to file a very late 1099-MISC, I 

found

 that apparently that requirement was repealed for rental 

properties, so my answer was incorrect. Do I need to amend my return to change the answer to No? Am I correct that I don't need a 1099?

I just did the IRS's Interactive Tax Assistant for "Should I file an amended return?" and it says No. So do I just wait for a penalty letter for not sending the form I incorrectly (I think) said I needed to send?
