This was a Personal residence and if so how long did you live there ?    Did you sell at a profit ?  Was it ever a rental ?

Ok ... you are selling a personal residence at a loss which is not deductible but the interest you collect each year on this contract is reported on the Sch B.  Do not use the installment sale option since you sold at a loss. 


Go to :  
    Federal Taxes, then
    Wages and income, then
    Choose what to work on, then
    Choose less common income, then
    Home Sale
