Get your taxes done using TurboTax

After you enter in the sale price it should ask for 'expenses of sale'.  This is where you enter in the costs associated with the sale as well as any costs that you had preparing the home to sell it.  Then it will ask for your basis in the home and that is the amount that you paid for the house originally.  The system will net all of that out in order to arrive at your taxable income.
