Gifts of Real Estate

Benefits

  • You pay no capital gains tax on the transfer.
  • You may be able to use the asset to fund a gift plan that will pay you income, such as a charitable unitrust.
How to Make a Real Estate Gift

When you are considering a gift of real estate, there are two things to remember:

  1. FEBC will review your generous offer and evaluate the condition and marketability of the proposed real estate to ascertain that the donation is risk-free and appropriate for all parties involved.
  2. The IRS requires donors of real estate to obtain an independent appraisal to establish the fair market value of the property to be donated.
