Earthquake

 

Napa, September 3, 2000 1:36A.M. PDT

 
We had quite a shaker this morning.  At only 5.2 though we can't imagine what `the big one` would be like.  But, we're all safe and sound.

If you have suffered damage as a result of the earthquake you may be entitled to a Casualty Loss Deduction on your income tax return.  Be sure to document your losses as well as you can.  Photographs and/or video tapes can be very helpful.  Documentation to support fair market values before and after the damage as well as the cost or basis of the property is essential.  Check this IRS summary of the rules relating to Casualty Loss Deductions.
