Sell house to yourself?

[quote Filliam H. Muffman]Wal-Mart does something like this. They started a real estate partnership and sold the stores to the partner and then leases them back. It allows them to deduct the rent payments off their taxes.
Lots of big businesses have done this for decades before WalMart was even started by Sam Walton.
Common practice.
