I sold an SFH (Single Family House) owned by my LLC (Single member, Disregarded Entity; NO other income/activity in that LLC) in 2016, for a Gain$. The house was purchased more than a year ago (for repairing and renting out purposes, but never got around to repairing it). In essence, the house was flipped for a gain.<BR /><BR />So, If a single-member LLC owns a property for more than a year and then sells it, are the profits deemed "business income" or "capital gains"?

Thank you, TurboTaxMinhT, for your prompt response. I concur. However, Can I "elect" to report it as 'Biz. Income' rather than Cap. Gains (I have my own reasons to elect to do so)? If so, how do I do it in TurboTax? TurboTax currently sees this as Cap Gains; which is, in accordance with the Answer. Thanks.

This is not an election. If you bought the property with the intent to resell it at a profit, then the gain is taxed as ordinary income (like real estate dealers do).
