Question

Where do I report a loss on sale of real estate to a related party? My taxpayer bought a home in January 2019 and sold it to his son in May 2019 for a loss.

F 8949, Sch D, maybe F 4797... 

The real question is whether the loss is 'deductible'.

This type of loss is not deductible.  I wanted to know where to reflect this correctly on Pro Series.

Schedule D - click the code showing personal loss in the "transaction type" box.

Bought a home in January and sold it in May to his son.  Sounds like the sale of personal property and isn't deductible.
