WHAT
IS A CHARITABLE CASH PURCHASE?
HOW YOU CAN MAXIMIZE YOUR NET RETURN WITH
A CHARITABLE CASH PURCHASE.
A Charitable Cash Sale of any real estate property to a qualified nonprofit organization
allows the seller both to receive cash from the sale and to claim a charitable contribution
for a tax deduction as permitted by law. The difference between the appraised value
of your property at the time of the sale and the cash received is your tax deduction.
This tax deduction can be used up to 50 percent of the donor / seller’s adjusted
gross income (AGI) for that year and up to five years thereafter.
A Chairitable
Sale is one of the best methods to STOP FORECLOURE and to SAVE YOUR CREDIT AND TAXES.
If your property is foreclosed or if you make a quick sale to avoid foreclosure,
you must pay income taxes on the amount of the debt paid off either by the bank or
buyer. Either way you lose.
The CHARITABLE sale donation will generally
allow you to deduct the fair market value* of the property at the time the contribution
is made.
*Fair market value of the donated asset is often far greater than
the cash value of the asset. Real Estate Appraisers will determine the REAL value
for you.
