Why Make a Gift of Real Estate?

When you make the generous decision to donate your home or land to Fred Hutch, your property becomes an enduring promise to families facing cancer. Whether your real estate represents a lifetime of family memories or a smart business investment ready for a new life, your thoughtful gift will advance lifesaving cancer research and support our commitment to clinical excellence.

Making an outright gift to Fred Hutch or funding a charitable gift annuity can also provide significant financial benefits, including a charitable tax deduction, reduced capital gains taxes or the opportunity to spread gains out over time. Please contact us to learn more.

Conditions

Before real estate is accepted by Fred Hutch, it must be inspected by a member of our Philanthropy staff, undergo a Phase I environmental study, and be accepted by our Gift Acceptance Committee. A real estate professional will also evaluate the property for marketability, and a professional appraisal will be completed. It is Fred Hutch policy to immediately sell real estate after the transaction is completed, so the marketability of the property is essential.
