Charitable Bargain Sales

CLICK HERE FOR A DETAILED EXPLANATION

How it works

You sell your residence or other property to Pittsburgh History & Landmarks Foundation for a price below the appraised market value, resulting in a transaction that is part charitable gift and part sale.

The Pittsburgh History & Landmarks Foundation may use the property, but it usually elects to sell it and uses the net proceeds of sale for the gift purpose(s) you specified.

Benefits

  • You receive an immediate income tax deduction for the appraised market value of the portion of the property you donated.
  • You pay no capital gains tax on the donated portion of the property.
  • You can receive cash from the sale portion to retire a mortgage or for other purposes.
  • You have the satisfaction of making a significant gift to PHLF during your lifetime.
