    Hi LizAnne,

    If this is a rental property, then you must enter the property in the Rental Income section as a Depreciable Asset first and then fill out the parts about selling it.

    If it was a Schedule C business property, enter it in the Schedule C as a Depreciable Asset first and then fill out the parts about selling it.

    You may also use the options for Sale of Business asset page to generate a form 4797.
