If the lender forgives this deficient amount, you will receive a 1099-c from the lender. If the fair market value is higher than the loan balance, it will be considered as a gain. The lender will give you the excess amount resulting from the sale of the property after satisfying his debt. In case of the rental property, it will be the same. Thanks. _________________ Good is the Enemy of Great.

After trying to figure this out, I came across this which helped me figure out the "sales" price depending on the circumstances: FMV is MORE THAN Debt: (means) the sales price is the amount of DEBT - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -- - FMV is LESS THAN Debt Box 5 of 1099A (liable for repayment)(two possible answers) (x) yes (recourse) means sales price is the amount of DEBT (x) no (non-recourse) means sales price is the amount of FMV --------------------------------------------------------------------- How does this get reported? sch D. , 4797, 982 or all? Is it true that if it is a personal property, the T.P. does not have to pay taxes on the difference ONLY ON RENTAL PROPERTY? SandyML
SandyML Guest	Posted: Mon Feb 23, 2009 8:55 pm    Post subject: 1099A Like 0 Dislike 0 N. Ok, I am answering my own questions: If the property is business property, report it on Form 4797, Sales of Business Property, and follow the normal rules. If the property is a personal home, report it on Form 1040, Schedule D, following the normal rules for sale of a main home. my question remains then is this: when does the 982 come in and how could i learn how to fill it out? and again, on personal property, the T.P. does not have to pay taxes on the difference ONLY ON RENTAL PROPERTY? ???

If the lender has forgiven the deficient balance, then it might be considered as your income and you may be liable for paying taxes. However, depending upon the Mortgage Debt Relief Act, you may not have to pay taxes on the forgiven debt. _________________ Procrastination is the enemy of your financial success

My primary residence was forclosed and the sale amount paid in full the 1st and 2nd. HOwever, I received a 1099a from my 1st and 3rd with both not forgiving any amount. On both 1099a the debt is lower then the sale price with me being liable for the loans. Will I owe the difference between the amounts?
homess Guest	Posted: Thu Feb 24, 2011 4:06 pm    Post subject: 1099a vs 1099c Like 0 Dislike 0 After reading the previous post from gil regarding the amount in box 2 (debt) is less then the amount in 4 (FMV) of a 1099a....you asked if his debt was forgiven????? wouldn't he have gotten a 1099c if the debt was forgiven??? That is what I thought was the difference between a 1099a (debt is NOT forgivn) and a 1099c (debt is forgivn).
