Investors & landlords

@TaxLu I am not sure that I really understand the issue. To be clear , 1099_INT would usually be issued by a bank or a financial entity whom has paid you interest on monies that they  hold as deposit for you.

On the other hand, in an installment sale you sell something  ( like land, house etc. ) and  act as the lender, you collect  interest ( usually from an individual and not an entity )  till the original sales amount is fully paid off.  In this case you have report/recognize the interest you have earned.  So yes , generally you will report  1099-INT and also the "installment sale " interest   ( select not reported on 1099-INT ).

 

Is this what you are dealing with or am I in left field ?
