Goodwill
Funds job training and employment placement programs through donated goods and community services.
From Miami-Dade County farmland to a downtown Pinecrest condo, almost any property can become a charitable gift. A donation skips the open market entirely, so there are no commissions to pay and no offers to wait on.

Vacant homes, inherited houses, and tired rentals carry taxes, insurance, and upkeep. Donating a Pinecrest property ends the carrying costs in one step.
A traditional Pinecrest sale means agent fees, staging, repairs, and months of open houses. A donation transfers title directly — none of that applies.
Sell an appreciated Pinecrest property and the IRS takes a cut of every dollar of gain. Donate it instead and that capital gains liability disappears entirely.
Turn your property into a second chance at life.

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.
Income property comes with a workload — tenants, repairs, vacancies, and the bookkeeping that follows. When a Pinecrest owner is ready to step back, a sale can mean capital gains tax plus depreciation recapture.
Donating the building instead routes its full value to charity and ends the management role in a single transfer. Existing leases and the property's condition are reviewed by the receiving charity during assessment.
Straight answers on donating real estate, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
Begin with the form on this page: provide a few basic details about the Pinecrest property and request a free valuation. From there you are connected with a qualified 501(c)(3) that handles the appraisal, title transfer, and closing directly with you.
Yes, though every owner on the title generally must agree to and sign the transfer. Jointly owned and inherited properties are common donations once the co-owners are aligned.
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.
Form 8283 is the IRS form for reporting noncash charitable contributions. A real estate gift is reported in its Section B, signed by both the appraiser and the receiving charity, and filed with your return for the year of the donation.
Yes. You do not need to live in Pinecrest — or in Florida — to donate property there. The receiving charity handles the transfer, and documents can typically be signed remotely.
Residential homes, vacant land, commercial buildings, and multi-family properties can all qualify. Condition and title issues are addressed during review rather than disqualifying a property upfront.
