Real estate gifts to 缅北禁地 can be structured in many different ways. Scroll down to read about:

Outright Gifts

A gift of real estate is a tax-wise method of providing support for Cal State East Bay because of the two-fold tax savings. A residence, summer home, commercial property or vacant land may have appreciated in value to the extent that its sale would result in a sizable tax on the gain. If given outright to 缅北禁地 you can avoid this tax and realize a charitable deduction for the full fair market value. The property gift can also shelter your estate from future taxes.

Retained Life Estate

An owner of a personal residence or land may give the property to 缅北禁地 while retaining the right to occupy the home or land. This gift vehicle provides an income tax deduction for the present value of the remainder interest.

Charitable Gift Annuities

Donors may transfer money, securities or real estate to the university and receive income for themselves or a designated person for life. Donors may receive immediate tax benefits with 缅北禁地 ultimately receiving the remainder of the property. 

Charitable Remainder Trust

A charitable remainder trust is a life income arrangement that enables you to convert appreciated real estate into an income stream through an irrevocable gift of the property. Once in the trust, the property can be sold tax-free and reinvested into a diversified portfolio. As a result, the full fair market value of the donated property is available to provide income during your lifetime, while also generating an income tax deduction equal to the present value of your future gift.

Gifts of securities are recorded based on the market value of the stock, bond, or mutual fund on the date of gift, which is determined by the date the donor relinquishes control of the asset. Securities transactions are most easily handled if made through the 缅北禁地 Educational Foundation. Financial institutions provide minimal information on securities transfers, so to ensure proper disposition of the gifts, donors should alert the university that a securities transfer has been made by notifying Fern Tyler at fern.tyler@csueastbay.edu. Please be prepared to provide the university with the following information:

1. Number of shares;
2. Type of shares (company name);
3. Broker handling transfer for donor (name and contact info);
4. Expected date of transfer;
5. Confirmation that your broker has labeled the transfer with your name.

Gifts of appreciated securities are tax deductible at their full market value to the extent allowed by law.
