Investors & landlords

The most detailed way to handle this would be to just enter the correct amount of rent with each property. If you use the same information from the 1099-MISC for the Payer and Payer ID, as long as the total sums up to what was reported on your Schedule E that is what matters.

 

For example, lets say your 1099-MISC says $10,000 for two properties and it should be $6,000 for one and $4,000 for the other. Pretend like you had two 1099's from the same payer (I'm guessing your property manager) and enter $6,000 for one and $4,000 for the other using the same information provided on your 1099-MISC for everything else but the amount.

 

In this way, you aren't forced to select "Just one" property.
