    Follow the interview carefully, in TurboTax.

    In TurboTax (TT), enter at:
    - Federal Taxes tab (Personal in  Home & Business)

     - Wages & Income

    Scroll down to:

    -Investment Income

       -Stocks, mutual funds, Bonds, Other (Real estate is other)

    Answer no, when asked if you got a 1099-B. then follow the interview.

    You will reach a screen "Select any less common adjustments that apply".   Check "Some (or all) of the proceeds from this sale do not belong to me".  Then enter the amount of the gain that belongs to the other partners as a negative number (e.g. -25000).
