Gifts of Real Estate

A gift of a personal residence or a vacation home, particularly if highly appreciated, can be a very beneficial way for you to make a significant gift to Chautauqua, while retaining the right to live in the home for the rest of your life. 

If the gifted property is highly appreciated, there is potential for a sizeable charitable deduction and the avoidance of capital gains tax.  

There are other types of real estate Chautauqua accepts as gifts, such as undeveloped land, farmland, and rental property.  Each has its own tax advantages and you should consult your professional advisors about making a gift of this type.

We welcome the opportunity to speak with you about the potential for a gift of real estate.

By making a gift of real estate for the benefit of Chautauqua, you are entitled to become a member of the Eleanor B. Daugherty Society.
