Sale of investment real estate

Do I check "Second Home' or "Everything Else" for the sale of investment real estate property, never used for rental or business and if Second Home should be checked then why do /i need to check Personal Use when in fact it was held for investment and if "Everything else" is checked and the 1099S shows gross proceeds and I put in net proceeds then it wont match to the gross proceeds form sent to IRS and there is not an option to put selling costs under "Everything Else"

Use the Everything else category and enter the NET proceeds on the screen.

Instructions for Form 8849 say to always report the sales proceeds (gross) shown on form 1099S. Help!
