Where do i enter expenses as a real estate agent?

As a self employed real estate agent you will complete the Schedule C for this income.  You can enter your activity by using the steps below.  If you also buy and then sell houses there is more detail and it would be a different business than simply being a real estate agent.

To enter this as business income:.

  • Sign in to TurboTax.
  • Click on the orange Take me to my return button.
  • Type sch c in the search/find bar and click search/find.
  • Click on Jump to sch c. (image attached)
  • Click on start/edit or Add Another Business.
  • At the Your XXX Business screen:
  • To enter your income, scroll down to Business Income. Click Start/Update. Click Start/Update next to General Income.
  • To enter your business expenses, scroll down to  Business Expenses, Other Common Business Expenses. Click Start/Edit. 
  • Continue with the onscreen interview. (see images attached)
