To determine gain or loss, you’ll need the closing documents from the original purchase of the house you sold and the closing statement for the sale of the house. So if you purchased the house for $189,000 and sold it for $225,000 the gain would be $36,000
Definitely report the sale even if you did not make any money.
IRS gets a copy of Form 1099-S. If you don’t report the sale, IRS will probably send a notice with the assumption you owe tax on $115,000. It’s better to include the sale on your return now to avoid having to deal with IRS later.
