We sold our vacation condo in 2023. It was only used for personal use. How do we enter the sale information?

We have turbotax Premier.

The second or vacation home is sold as an investment property.

 The second home sale can be entered into TurboTax CD or Desktop version by following the steps below.

1. Open your TurboTax account > Wages & Income 
2. Scroll to Investment Income > Select Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other > Start or Update
3. Select Enter a different way > Select the type of sale - Other
4. Enter the details of the property sold - Select Second Home from the dropdown continue to enter your information
5. Continue to finish your sale.  
6. See the image below.

The gain from the sale will be fully taxable because a second home is not eligible for the home sale exclusion. See the image below for assistance. Whether you specifically select Second Home is not relevant for the tax return itself.

I followed the steps to enter the information on the sale of our second home that was for personal use.  Unfortunately the screen does not appear to show up in full  when I try to edit the information. I'm including a screen shot of the page and as you can see the right hand side is incomplete.  What do I need to do to fix it?

Screenshot didn't work.  But the problem remains.
