Goodwill

Straight answers on donating real estate, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
For property held more than a year and given to a public charity, the deduction is generally the fair market value set by a qualified appraisal. The actual tax savings depend on your appraised value, income, and filing situation, so confirm the figure with your tax advisor.
No. A valuation request is informational and carries no cost or obligation. You can review the estimate and decide whether a donation makes sense for you.
Largely, yes. A donation avoids the public listing and price history a sale creates. The deed transfer itself becomes a public record, as all property transfers do, but the gift draws far less attention than an open-market sale.
Yes. Farmland, ranch land, and other agricultural property can be donated like any other real estate. Acreage with crops, leases, or water rights is reviewed by the receiving charity during assessment.
No. Charities that accept real estate routinely take properties that need repairs, including distressed or uninhabitable buildings. Condition is reflected in the appraised value rather than ruling a property out.
Often yes. Liens and unpaid property taxes add steps but do not automatically disqualify a gift. The receiving charity reviews any encumbrances during its assessment and explains how they affect the donation.
