American Red Cross
Delivers emergency response, blood services, and disaster recovery across the country.
A Marinette property carries real value — and real costs. Donating it to a qualified charity converts years of appreciation into a single fair-market-value write-off while sidestepping the capital gains bill a sale would trigger.

A property donation in Marinette skips the public listing, the open houses, and the price history that a sale leaves on the record.
A traditional Marinette sale means agent fees, staging, repairs, and months of open houses. A donation transfers title directly — none of that applies.
Sell an appreciated Marinette 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.

Income property comes with a workload — tenants, repairs, vacancies, and the bookkeeping that follows. When a Marinette 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.
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.
Getting started is simple: share a few details about the Marinette property and request a free, no-obligation valuation. There is no commitment at this stage and no cost to ask.
From there, a qualified 501(c)(3) equipped to accept real estate reviews the property and handles the appraisal coordination, title work, and closing directly with you. Easy Real Estate Donation connects you with that organization — the donation itself is completed between you and the charity.
Straight answers on donating real estate, the tax treatment, and what to expect.
A partial or fractional interest can sometimes be donated, but the tax rules are stricter than for a whole-property gift. If you are considering a partial donation, discuss it with your tax advisor first.
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.
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.
Selling a depreciated rental can trigger depreciation recapture taxed at a higher rate. Donating the property instead generally avoids that recapture, though the deduction may be adjusted for it — a point worth confirming with your tax advisor.
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.
It depends on the organization. Some charities sell donated real estate and direct the proceeds to their programs; others may put a property to use directly. The receiving charity can explain its intended use before you complete the gift.
