Gift Planning

How does it work?

It's called a charitable bargain sale.

You sell us your residence or other property for substantially less than the appraised market value. We pay you in cash.
This results in a transaction that is part sale, part gift.
You receive an immediate income tax deduction for the value of the gift portion.
You pay no capital gains tax on the gift portion.
You receive cash to retire a mortgage or for other purposes.
