Taxpayer purchased a Cooperative apartment in New Jersey and used it as a second home during the summer months. Her primary residence is in Florida.
The apartment was purchased in 2016 and sold in 2025. Based on the cost and selling price, taxpayer realized a gain of 20K.
Since it was not her primary residence she cannot use the 121 exclusion. The apartment was never rented.
Do I use Form 4797 to report the sale, and if so where do I insert the property's address so that New jersey would get a share of the taxes. On the flip side do I have to file a New Jersey state tax return?
Thanks
