Form 1099‑S is the IRS information return used to report the gross proceeds from the sale or exchange of real estate. Whether you are a title company, real‑estate agent, or a private individual who closed a transaction, you must provide a copy to the seller and file it with the IRS.
The form captures essential details such as the closing date, property address, gross proceeds, and any property or services received. Accurate reporting helps prevent penalties and ensures the seller can correctly report capital gains.
