New client (TP) was carrying mortgage (residential house) via land contract then reporting Installment sale income on form 6252 since 2010. In 2014 TP foreclosed on house if that is the correct term due to borrowers walked. Am I correct that needs to be reported on their 2014 tax return? Also, TP currently owns the house but not as a rental.

Read about Repossession in TTB. You have a calculation to go through to arrive at your client's new basis in the property after repossession. Start with 14-11 and 6-20. If you have Tax Tools, see if they have a worksheet. You probably need to get into more thorough research, such as CCH's IntelliConnect. I see an Extension.
