Gifts of Real Estate

CLICK HERE FOR A DETAILED EXPLANATION

How it works

You deed your home, a commercial building, or investment property to Diakon.

Diakon may use the property for its own purposes, or, more likely, will sell it and use the proceeds for our programs.

Benefits

  • You receive an income tax deduction for the fair market value of the real estate, no matter what you originally paid for it.
  • You pay no capital gains tax on the transfer.
  • You can direct the proceeds from your gift to a specific Diakon program.
