Step 1 Explanation

Gain or Loss on Property Exchanged or Sold

In most cases, a taxpayer is required to report any profit or loss from the sale or exchange of property. If the sum realised exceeds the seller's adjusted basis in the property, the seller has gained. When the property's adjusted basis exceeds the amount realised, the seller suffers a loss.

The amount realized from sale generally equals to fair market value, the debt element is not considered on part of seller.

The fair market value of property is not netted by sale expenses for valuation purposes.
