FAQ
An installment sale is a sale of property where you receive at least one payment after the tax year of the sale. If you realize a gain on an installment sale, you may be able to report part of your gain when you receive each payment. This method of reporting gain is called the installment method.
In an installment sale, the seller takes a note receivable for deferred payments from the buyer. The seller then recognizes taxable gain as installment payments of note receivable principal amounts are received, in proportion to the principal payments.
Examples of installment buying would be a home, a car, or other large purchases that require financing, such as a laptop. It allows the purchaser to buy without paying the entire amount upfront.
Under the installment method, you include in income each year only the part of the gain you receive or are considered to have received. You don't include in income the part of the payment that's a return of your basis in the property.
