If you did not have a gain on the sale, you do not need to file a Massachusetts tax return.
As a nonresident, you need to file income tax returns with Massachusetts if your Massachusetts gross income (from sources within Massachusetts) is greater than either $8,000 or the prorated personal exemption you're entitled to, whichever is less. Nonresidents file Form 1-NR/PY, Massachusetts Nonresident or Part-Year Resident Income Tax Return.
Massachusetts gross income, also known as Massachusetts source income, is income you gained from sources within Massachusetts, including and excluding specific income items.
