Turbotax automatically generated it for me. I am the sole property owner. I do not provide substantial services to my tenant.

No, you need to file your rental income and expenses on Schedule E, not Schedule C.

Unless significant personal services are involved in the rental, Schedule C is not the appropriate place to report rental income and expenses.

To learn more, see the following TurboTax help article:

Should I report my rental on Schedule E or Schedule C?

Yes, you will need to Amend Your Return. When you do, you will delete the 1099-Misc that you entered, then go to the rental section of TurboTax. When you add your income, you will be able to enter the 1099-Misc and report it as rental income instead of self-employment income. If your 1099-Misc was taxed as Self-employment income, this will likely result in a refund as you would not be subject to Self-Employment taxes which are 15.3% of your profit.
