Investors & landlords

@golies Since you 'converted the rental property to personal use' in 2019, report the sale in 2020 as 'Sale of Business Property'.  You are correct that you won't have a Schedule E, but you will need your Accumulated Depreciation amount from your 2019 return.

From Expert @Colleen D:

"If you did not rent it in 2020, there is no reason to enter it in the Rental section. You would enter your information in the Sale of Business Property section.
