Did you file the 1065 with only one member? The 1065 is for partnerships, a SMLLC is not a partnership. If you are a SMLL taxed as a disregarded entitiy and have rental income, the correct place for the income and expense is Schedule E.

I purchased a home in 2002, rehabbed it and sold it in 2004. The home was in a SMLLC with me as the member. How do I report the gain on my 1040? Can I report it as a capital gain? There are no other assets in the LLC. Do I have to attach a K-1 form to my 1040? Thanks

A SMLLC is a disregarded entity for tax purposes, therefore you do not file a tax return for it. You report the gain on your personal return. Was it rented during the period you owned it? If so, you must report the income/loss on Sch E and any gain would be reported on Form 4797. If you did not rent it, you would report the gain on Sch D as long term capital gain. Your basis would include all your costs to rehab it. You would also be allowed to deduct from the gain any expenses related to the sale. It is not a bad idea to sit with a CPA who is comfortable with the area and discuss this with him.

Single member LLCs do not file form 1065.
