I think the culprit here is the depreciation recapture.  That would be the $150K for the building over 27.5 years.  That would be $5,545 per year, for 8 years would be an add-back of $43,640.

 

I would expect to see something like:

 

Gross Sale         365,000

Basis                  180,000

Depreciation         43,600

Adjusted Basis               141,400

Total Gain                       223,600

 

This calculation will appear in the 4797 worksheets.

If you pay the TurboTax fee you can see all of the forms.  

I can't tell what went wrong without seeing the return.
