State Specific Question About: TENNESSEE (TN)

Does anyone know how to calculate taxes on a short sale after they receive the 1099 form. This is for investment property. --70.182.x.xxx

loan amount forgiven is usually included in income. however, new law this year allows you to exclude a large part of this due to the economic conditions and massive short sale/foreclosure rates. go to irs.gov and research it. --71.230.xxx.xxx

I don't believe you can get out of a 1099C on investment property , If you can please someone tell me. Anyways. You do have to add it to your income, but in my case it was about a wash , as I had about 65K in the property from a down payment and mortgage payment, so don't forget those. I just didnt get to take the 65K loss, like I would have under a regular sale. Now that being said I'm not sure if its add to your earned income or capital gain income. CPAs handling all that. --74.243.xx.xxx

So because you are so rich you get to call it income and pay more income taxes.
