Is Inherited house sale - answer noted in your answer section, correct? Told to select "second home sales". I indicating it was an investment, not business, the software said 2nd homes are considered personal use property and a loss cannot be deducted and to go back and select "Everything Else" vs "Second Home Sales".
How should this data be entered or is there no loss possible with an inherited house sale?
You'll need to sign in or create an account to connect with an expert.
In Turbotax, "Sale of home" and "sale of second home" only apply to personal residences.
You need to go to the Income section for "stocks, bonds and other investments" and enter the property as an "other asset." Assuming you inherited it, never used it personally, and can show a loss (such as due to selling expenses) you can get a deductible capital loss.
