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 Edgemoor 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.
