Straight answers on donating real estate, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
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.
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.
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.
