My clients sold home with farm for 565.000 purchased it for 425000 in 2004 they qualify for 500,000 for exclusion however is the farm consider income producing property where I can write off improvements as well as closing cost. The income is nominal probably about 1000 last year. The Improvements for the sale of the barn were 106000. Should I just write the improvements off as a loss on the farm and transfer that amount from sch F to the 1040. the client earns close to 500,000 per year.
Thanks

Doesn't really sound like a farm. Sounds like a hobby.
Improvements generally add to basis. I would not deduct deduct $106K expenses against $1K "farm" income.
The more I know, the more I don't know.
