Instructions for Transferor

Box 2. Shows the gross proceeds from a real estate transaction,

generally the sales price. Gross proceeds include cash and notes

payable to you, notes assumed by the transferee (buyer), and any

notes paid off at settlement. Box 2 does not include the value of

other property or services you received or are to receive. See Box 4.

For sales or exchanges of certain real estate, the person responsible

for closing a real estate transaction must report the real estate

proceeds to the Internal Revenue Service and must furnish this

statement to you. To determine if you have to report the sale or

exchange of your main home on your tax return, see the instructions

for Schedule D (Form 1040), Capital Gains and Losses. If the real

estate was not your main home, report the transaction on Form

4797, Sales of Business Property; Form 6252, Installment Sale

Income; and/or Schedule D (Form 1040). If box 4 is checked and you

received or will receive like-kind property, you must file Form 8824,

Like-Kind Exchanges.

Box 3. Shows the address or a legal description of the property

transferred.

Box 4. If marked, shows that you received or will receive services or

property (other than cash or notes) as part of the consideration for

the property transferred. The value of any services or property (other

than cash or notes) is not included in box 2.

Box 1. Shows the date of closing.

Box 5. Shows certain real estate tax on a residence charged to the

buyer at settlement. If you have already paid the real estate tax for

the period that includes the sale date, subtract the amount in box 5

from the amount already paid to determine your deductible real

estate tax. But if you have already deducted the real estate tax in a

prior year, generally report this amount as income on the “Other

income” line of Form 1040. For more information, see Pub. 523,

Pub. 525, and Pub. 530.

Federal mortgage subsidy. You may have to recapture (pay back)

all or part of a federal mortgage subsidy if all the following apply:

● You received a loan provided from the proceeds of a qualified

mortgage bond or you received a mortgage credit certificate,

● Your original mortgage loan was provided after 1990,

● You sold or disposed of your home at a gain during the first 9

years after you received the federal mortgage subsidy, and

This will increase your tax. See Form 8828, Recapture of Federal

Mortgage Subsidy, and Pub. 523, Selling Your Home.

Account number. May show an account or other unique number

the filer assigned to distinguish your account.

● Your income for the year you sold or disposed of your home was

over a specified amount.
