    Depreciation Recapture

    How to report the sale and the depreciation recapture using this scenario?
    Client owns a personal residence for past 6 years with 3 floors of which 2 floors have been rented and 1 floor used as personal residence. Depreciation was claimed for the 2 floors on Schedule E. Now the total property has been sold. Selling price $400,000, cost basis plus selling expense is $250,000 with accumulated depreciation $65,000 (total for property).

    Are the two rented floors a separate "Dwelling Unit" (separate kitchen, bath, sleeping, usually a separate entrance)? Was it rented the entire time, or were those two floors previously used for personal purposes (and if ever used for personal, give details)?

      To TaxGuyBill,
      The two rented floors were separate "Dwelling Units" and rented most of the time.
