Investors & landlords

It depends. If you rented the property for 14 days or less, you are not required to report the income. With more than 14 rental days, you would report the income in one of two places:

1. Schedule E, if you provided a place to stay and nothing more.
2. Schedule C, if you provided services like a hotel.
