And where do I enter it. I do not see this question in tt

What type of property? A rental house? Yes, if you took depreciation, you will have to recapture it and it will decrease your basis, causing a larger gain.

In order to direct you, I need more information about your property.

If it was rented in 2020, enter your income, expenses and sales information in the Rental section. The sales info will be in the depreciation/asset section.

If you had no rental in 2020, enter the sale in Sale of Business Property.

1) Wages and Income

2) Other Business Situations

3) Sale of Business Property

4) Other Property Sales

5) Select Sales of Business or Rental Property that you haven't already reported

6)Choose No to the question, "Do all of the following apply to the property you sold?".

7)Choose Yes to the following screen that asks, "Do any of the following descriptions apply to the items you sold?".

8)Select the type of property from the drop down box.

9)Enter the information for your sale.
