do use 1099-nec for a bookkeeper?

Level 5

are individuals or living trusts required to issue 1099s to individuals and companies for work associated with rental property?

Level 15

Beginning in 2020, the IRS has changed the method of reporting Non-Employee Compensation, which used to be reported in Box 7 of the 1099-MISC. It is now reported on Form 1099-NEC.

Regardless of your entity type (individual, trust, partnership, etc.) you must file a Form 1099-NEC, Nonemployee Compensation, for each person in the course of your business to whom you have paid the following during the year at least $600 in:

1. Services performed by someone who is not your employee (including parts and materials) (box 1); or

2. Payments to an attorney (box 1).

Level 5

the key words in the reply are, "your business." If the rentor (i.e., the owner) has a single, residential property, it is NOT considered a business. Therefor, no 1099s are required.
