Straight answers on donating real estate, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
What is IRS Form 8283 and do I need it? expand_more
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.

Can I deduct the full value of an expensive Manitowoc County property in one year? expand_more
The deduction for real estate is generally capped at 30% of adjusted gross income in the year of the gift, but any excess carries forward for up to five additional years.
Should I talk to a tax advisor before donating in Manitowoc County? expand_more
