Charitable Bargain Sales
(Gift illustration)
How it works
You transfer an undivided partial interest (say 55%) in your residence or other property to the WVU Foundation.
You join with the WVU Foundation to sell your residence or other property, resulting in a transaction that is part charitable gift and part sale.
The WVU Foundation will use the proceeds of the sale for the gift purposes you specified.
Benefits
- You receive an immediate income tax deduction for the appraised market value of the undivided partial interest portion of the property you donated.
- You pay no capital gains tax on the donated portion of the property.
- You use cash from the sale portion to retire a mortgage or purchase other property.
- You have the satisfaction of making a significant gift to benefit West Virginia University during your lifetime.
- You may specify that your gift will be used to create a permanent endowment fund.
