Donating Real Estate in Flathead County: Common Questions
Straight answers on donating real estate, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
How large a tax deduction will donating my Flathead County property produce? expand_more
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.
What is the featured charity, and do I have to use it? expand_more
The featured partner is a 501(c)(3) experienced with real estate gifts. You are never required to use it — you can pick any charity you like. But if your main goal is the tax deduction and the convenience, and you would rather not research organizations one by one, asking to route your property to the featured partner is the simplest option.

Begin with the form on this page: provide a few basic details about the Flathead County 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.
What types of property qualify for donation? expand_more
