A client, Carter Fowlkes, owns a second home that he has been unable to sell for quite a while. He has struck on the idea of granting the local fire department rights to use it for training, including the right to destroy it by fire or other means, if that would prove beneficial to the department.

Your client has asked you to explain what effects this transaction will have on his income taxes. Write a letter to Mr. Fowlkes responding to his inquiry, using the principles of effective document design discussed in this chapter.
