Kevin recently purchased a beautiful house on a hillside in sunny California at a cost of $1 million. One evening while enjoying a barbeque on his patio and after a particularly heavy rain, Kevin is surprised to see his neighbors' house disappear in a mudslide. Visibly shaken, Kevin makes immediate efforts to sell his home. Although the view from his lot has improved considerably, he meets severe buyer resistance when forced to explain why he lacks one set of neighbors. Kevin's best offer, made by a family just arrived in town, is $500,000. Kevin reevaluates his life insurance portfolio places his personal affairs in order and decides not to sell. Presuming the landslide caused no physical damage to his property, does Kevin have a casualty loss?
