Gifts of Land

Virtually any real property—a home, farm, office building or land—can become a gift to Northern Kentucky Community Action Commission. When you contribute long-term appreciated securities or real estate, you can deduct the full fair market value of the property, effectively giving away the capital gain tax obligation. In this way, you avoid any capital gains tax and receive a charitable income tax deduction for the gift. As with securities, gifts of real estate are eligible for a deduction of up to 30% of your adjusted gross income.
