| Hi I recently sold a rental property which was my principle residence some ten years ago. I have attached a scedule D and a form 4797 to report this item. I am concerned that there is not a place to record the cost of improvements and some closing cost which do not show up on my HUD closing sheet. I am ok with this but it makes me think that I might need a different form. When I was renting it there was opportunities to itemize these expenditures. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me.
