Deductions & credits
Form 1099-S only reports the date of closing and gross proceeds (sales price) it does not list details about an installment sale.
You'll need to acquire the details of the payments you've received from the buyer. When you sold the property, you should have received a "Loan Amortization Schedule" from the title company, showing the schedule of payments to be made by the buyer. This schedule will break down the to principal and interest that apply to each payment. You'll need that schedule to accurately report this installment sale on your return. If you were not provided a schedule of payments, you may find the following Mortgage Payment Calculator useful in calculating the information you need. https://www.amortization-calc.com/mortgage-payment-calculator/
Once you have the information about the loan payments, you'll report this sale under the Income & Expenses section of your return under Less Common Income/Installment Sales. (see screenshot). Follow the program prompts to enter the details of this sale and report the principal and interest payments received.
