Get your taxes done using TurboTax

You and your friend will report your share of the sale as a sale of investment property. For example, if you were 50/50 investors, you would each report a sale price of $12,500 and cost of $3,250. Since you made a profit and owned the land for more than a year, you would each pay capital gains tax.
