From there, a qualified 501(c)(3) equipped to accept real estate reviews the property and handles the appraisal coordination, title work, and closing directly with you. Easy Real Estate Donation connects you with that organization — the donation itself is completed between you and the charity.
A transparent, four-step process ensures a smooth transition from property to philanthropy. (The exact process may differ between organizations, these are the general phases)
Your charity will conduct a preliminary assessment of your property's market value and suitability for donation.
Their experts handle title searches, environmental checks, and prepare all necessary transfer paperwork.
The property is officially transferred to the charity. You receive IRS Form 8283 for tax deduction purposes.
The property is sold and proceeds are distributed to your chosen charity to fund their mission.
Straight answers on donating real estate, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
The deduction applies to the tax year in which the title transfer is completed. Donors aiming to claim it in a particular year often start early enough to leave room for the appraisal and title review before December 31.
A partial or fractional interest can sometimes be donated, but the tax rules are stricter than for a whole-property gift. If you are considering a partial donation, discuss it with your tax advisor first.
No. Donating the property directly to a charity means you never realize the gain, so the capital gains tax that a sale would trigger does not apply.
Possibly. Charities accept properties with environmental questions but allow extra time for inspections and due diligence. Disclosing known concerns up front helps the receiving charity assess whether it can take the gift.
Typically nothing out of pocket. The receiving charity generally covers title work, closing, and related costs, and there are no agent commissions on a donation.
