Should this be listed as a business?

Ths person brought a house fixed it up and sold it . This is his first time . He received a 1099s. Therrell

that's called " flipping a house". and there is usually a gain on the sale. Need to ask more questions on flipping houses.

This is his first time .

Does that imply there will be more times?

You need to know if this is going to be a continuous thing (which would likely classify it as a business), or if it is a random, seldom occurring (or one time only) thing.
