I use Screen 47 and record all the Passive Loss and depreciation information. 

I would enter the depreciation date of sale, with no sales price, just as @itonewbie indicated.

Do not enter either 1= delete this year or 2=delete next year in the entry right above income. That will allow the Passive loss info to carry into next year, which will give you a nice summary at the bottom of the rental schedule next year. Next year record it in the notes, then delete the rental. 


Here's wishing you many Happy Returns

In each of the assets, under Deposition, enter a date on the line for Date sold, disposed, or retired (MANDATORY) to retire the asset.  However, I believe the asset retired will not be rolled over to subsequent years, so you probably need to keep the info as part of the carryforward notes.
