Where on the 1065 to I report interest paid to LLC financed mortage. I reported the sale last year.

Need some additional details as the current facts are not sufficient to provide a response.

The house was part of a LLC . We never lived in the house, it was always a rental. We sold it last year and claimed the whole sale. This year I have to claim the interest on the self financed loan. I thought I had to claim it on the 1065 as business interest earned but I can't find a place for it, So now I'm thinking I have to claim it as Income on my 1040 because the sale of  house has already been claimed. Is this right?

A couple of follow-up questions:

1) You sold the rental that was owned by the LLC and picked up the entire gain and paid all of the tax, even though you did not receive all the sale proceeds?
2) Confirm that you elected out of the installment sale method even though you have not received all the proceeds
3) Who holds the note?  The LLC or you individually?
4) Does this LLC have other rentals, or what other business is the LLC involved in?

[taxes0631]

Yes we claimed the whole sale even though we didn't receive all the proceeds. We did elect out of the installment payments. We have other rental properties in the LLC.

[Rick19744]

The LLC holds the note?

[taxes0631]

Yes, we did the sale through an attorney. It was a mobile home not a house. The sale was only for 20 something so we claimed the whole thing in one year.

Based on the facts, the interest income should be reflected on Sch K line 5 and also on Sch K-1 line 5 for each member of the LLC.   This is just portfolio interest since earning interest is not the main activity of the LLC (ie lending institution).

I assume you have an amortization schedule that will provide you with the information you need based on payments received.

The principal of the note will be reflected on your balance sheet as an asset.

Thanks

Where do I enter the interest amount so it shows up on line 5?

[Rick19744]

I am on an IOS platform and the TT Business software is Windows only.  As a result I can't tell you specifically where to input it.  However, I would imagine there is a search function, help function that should provide assistance.

Thanks, I hate to keep bothering you. This is just so annoying to me. It's the only part I just don't seem to get!
