If you sold land for a cell tower and this was not your home, then you would enter the sale by taking the steps below. 

  • Federal
  • Income
  • Show More next to Investment Income
  • Start next to Stocks, Cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other (1099-B) 
  • Select Other
  • Continue through and select Other again for the type of investment (land)
  • Answer how you obtained the items you sold
  • You will need to enter the selling price, dates and the cost basis of the items

I have sold the family farm and have a 1099S.  How do I get to the entry location in Turbotax?

Enter the 1099-S in the Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds and Other interview in Personal > Personal Income > Investment Income - the interview assumes you will have a Form 1099-B, but this is where you enter a Form 1099-S.

 

There is no special interview in TurboTax for Form 1099-S - it is entered in the Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds and Other interview of Investment Income and is not a Form 1099-B.

 

In the Stocks, Mutual Funds, Bonds and Other interview, answer "No" when asked "Did you get a 1099-B or other brokerage statement for these sale?"  Then, enter the "farm" sale information from the 1099-S.

 

In desktop versions of TurboTax, the screen looks like the following:
