I sold a rental home in 2018. Can I postpone recording the sale to my 2019 tax year?

My income exceeded $150K in 2018 thereby negating any ability to claim real estate losses. My income in 2019 will be far less than $150K. Hence the reason I'm wondering if I can postpone recording the sale to the 2019 tax year.

No, sorry. But the sale of the property is a capital transaction, you are more likely to have a capital gain than a loss.

Still have questions?
