American Red Cross
Delivers emergency response, blood services, and disaster recovery across the country.
An empty house in Gillette is rarely a free asset — property taxes, insurance, and upkeep continue whether anyone lives there or not. A charitable donation ends those costs and replaces them with a fair-market-value deduction.

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 Gillette 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.
No. A valuation request is informational and carries no cost or obligation. You can review the estimate and decide whether a donation makes sense for you.
For high-value Gillette properties the case is often stronger: the larger the unrealized gain, the more capital gains tax a donation avoids, and the larger the fair-market-value deduction.
Yes. Property held by a company, partnership, or trust can be donated, though the deduction rules differ from those for individuals. An entity considering a gift should review the specifics with its tax advisor.
Yes. A gift of real property to a qualified 501(c)(3) is generally deductible at fair market value if you itemize and have held the property more than a year. A qualified appraisal and IRS Form 8283 document the deduction.
Yes. Waterfront and lakefront parcels are accepted; the charity simply allows additional time for environmental and insurance due diligence where it applies.
Typically nothing out of pocket. The receiving charity generally covers title work, closing, and related costs, and there are no agent commissions on a donation.
