Do I have to file 1099-NEC?

I flipped a house without a company. In toehr words I flipped a house as an individual. I hired a contractor to remodel the house? Do I have to issue him a 1099-NEC form? Thanks a lot!

As an independent contractor you would issue a 1099-NEC  for payment greater than $600 for services related to your business unless the payee is a corporation.

No.  Not if you are just an individual.   Only if you have a business or are self employed.

The issue is whether the IRS considers that you flipped the house with the intent of making a profit. If so, you are in business and would generate the 1099-NEC. It doesn’t matter that you are an “individual”.
