      Insufficient data. Need numbers, type of debt, and if recourse, was any forgiven.

        You have to

        go through the entire excercise of reporting the foreclosure as a sale...using the figures provided to you about the loan balance and the FMV of the property...Or if it was subsequently sold, what that selling price was...No straight forward answer, you have to do the numbers...If you are lucky the FMV and loan balance will not produce much if any COD, but the depreciation recapture will be what it is "allowed or allowable"...
