Taxpayers - MFJ
Real Property - A:
Bought in 01/2005
Used as Principal Residence from 01/2005 thru 09/2009
Converted to Rental Property from 10/2009 thru 08/2011
Reconverted to Principal Residence from 09/2011 thru to-date
Real Property - B:
Bought in 10/2009
Used as Principal Residence from 10/2009 thru 09/2011
Sold at loss in 09/2011
Loss treatment on Form 8582:
Year 2009 ( 3 months rented) - MAGI $107000 - Loss ($3700) Fully deducted
Year 2010 (12 months rented) - MAGI $127000 - Loss ($5600) Fully deducted
Year 2011 ( 8 months rented) - MAGI $151000 - Loss ($4000) Suspended (MAGI limitation)
Since Rental Activity no longer exists, and the Rental Property was
converted to Principal Residence, what happens to suspended loss (4000),
as the property itself NOT sold ?
Do the conversion to Principal Residence is considered "ENTIRE DISPOSITION
OF PASSIVE ACTIVITY", and reportable on Form 4797 to deduct entire loss ?
Taxpayers do not own any other real property.
And they are NOT Real estate professionals.
Anybody wants to give a thought to the tax loss situation. Thanks.
