Builds and repairs affordable homes alongside families working toward stable, long-term homeownership.
A Boiling Spring Lakes property carries real value — and real costs. Donating it to a qualified charity converts years of appreciation into a single fair-market-value write-off while sidestepping the capital gains bill a sale would trigger.

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.
A Boiling Spring Lakes sale nets you cash, but only after agent commissions, closing costs, repairs, and capital gains tax are subtracted. What reaches your pocket is a fraction of the headline price.
A donation removes those subtractions. There is no commission and no capital gains event, and the charitable deduction is calculated on the property's full fair market value rather than the reduced net of a sale.
Straight answers on donating real estate, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
Yes. Waterfront and lakefront parcels are accepted; the charity simply allows additional time for environmental and insurance due diligence where it applies.
The receiving charity manages title searches, the deed transfer, and required filings. You provide property details and sign the transfer documents.
Yes. Tired rentals are frequently donated. A gift ends the management burden and property tax exposure while converting the asset into a deduction; existing tenancies are reviewed during assessment.
Form 8283 is the IRS form for reporting noncash charitable contributions. A real estate gift is reported in its Section B, signed by both the appraiser and the receiving charity, and filed with your return for the year of the donation.
Yes, it is a good idea. The information here is general, and a tax professional can confirm how a property gift affects your specific deduction, income, and filing situation. The receiving charity handles the transaction, but the tax planning is yours.
Yes. Undeveloped land, empty lots, and parcels around Brunswick County are all eligible. Land is often a strong candidate to donate because it produces no income while still generating a property tax bill.
