Investors & landlords

Enter the sale in the Rental section to include the income and expenses for the time you rented it. There is a place to indicate the period of time it was your main home.

Full steps for entering rental property:

  • The first entry for the sale is found during the set-up of the property: Tell us about your situation this year/Click Sold or disposed of property

Next, the asset section of expenses will already be checked: 

*Assets

*Sold rental property

Includes info on the property you sold or disposed of. Since we know this applies to you, we've already selected it.
