Can I donate other types of real estate, such as a house, to the Land Trust?
The Land Trust also accepts gifts of other types of real estate-- homes, farms, building lots, commercial property, or other land unsuitable for permanent protection-- that we can use to create program support for land conservation while providing significant benefits to the donor.
What are the benefits of donating real estate to the Land Trust?
- Simplification of your estate and savings on estate taxes
- Charitable deductions on your income taxes
- Savings on property taxes
- Personal satisfaction: real estate donation is a way for you to make a contribution to an organization which is dedicated to maintaining the natural features of the landscape in your community.
How can I find out more information?
Call the main office at (607) 275-9487 or write or e-mail the Finger Lakes Land Trust to talk with a staff member about your conservation goals.
