Real Estate Donation Program

Oregon Real Estate Donations

Donating real estate to support Cat Rescue & Adoption Network is fast and easy! The proceeds from your property donation allow us to provide care and find loving homes for the cats and kittens of our community, with a focus on those with special needs.

Our real estate donation program takes any property type (land, homes, commercial) in any location so long as there is equity. Even if you owe back taxes, have a mortgage balance or have deferred maintenance, it’s no problem. We will pay off all loans, liens, commissions owed and all closing costs. If you have a real estate asset that is costing you money or not being utilized, donating it is a great way to give back. You may even claim a significant tax deduction!

Are you experiencing a loss on your rental property? If so, you’re not alone. Without rental income, many property owners must search in earnest for ways to offset the expense. Fortunately, within the current tax code, a certain percentage of rental losses can be deducted, and another way to claim a tax deduction is to donate your rental property to charity!

Real Estate Donation Tax Deductions

Donating real estate to a nonprofit can feel like a major weight has been lifted. In some cases, the capital gains taxes you would need to pay if you sold make it smarter to donate and receive a large tax deduction. Here are some of the IRS tax benefits* of donating real estate:

Deduct the appraisal value
Avoid capital gains tax
Carry the benefit for 5 years

The most popular is avoidance of the capital gains tax. A capital gains tax is one property owners must pay on any profits they make selling a property. At a federal level, this tax will range anywhere from 15% to 25%, depending on your income, plus the rate at a state level, which can be an additional 5% to 13%. This means that for every $100,000 worth of property donated to charity, you can avoid paying up to $38,000 in taxes.

*Please consult a tax professional about your specific situation.
