I have a rental in 2006 and 2007 and reported it to IRS.
In 2008 the property was foreclosed. Therefore, no rentals to report in 2008. I need to have closure to this transaction and let the IRS know that this rental property no longer exixt. I would apreciate any help
A foreclosure is nothing more than a forced sale. The sales price is generally the amount of the outstanding mortgage on it. You report the disposal of a business asset on Form 4797. Don’t forget to subtract the depreciation allowed or allowable while it was held as a rental from your basis. This is true whether you took the depreciation or not when you were renting it out. The gain or loss is reported on Schedule D.
You can write to them direct in DC.

Did you do your taxes? You should have reported it on your taxes, and that way it gets reported to the IRS. It should be reported on a schedule E (rent and royalty income) You would put all the information in on the home, however you would check the box that says "property was 100% disposed of in 2008").

no "closure" is needed – you just don’t report it for 2008 – there is no need to report anything that is zero income – business, rentals, etc.

Let’s put it this way. If you DON’T report the "sale" of the property, the IRS will figure your cost basis was zero and tax you on the full amount.
