Most real estate gifts are rejected by receiving organizations due to perceived risks, and ultimately the difficulty in converting to cash. In response to this challenge, the Education Foundation of the CCIM Institute’s Real Estate Gifting Program was established to successfully complete transactions from start-to-finish that involve gifts of real estate.

The Education Foundation can provide services for any non-profit, charity or fellow foundation that is qualified to receive real estate gifts. Alternatively, the Education Foundation can be a recipient of real estate gifts in their entirety, or on a shared basis with other qualified organizations. Gift options include: Outright Donations; Bargain Sales; Charitable Remainder Trusts; and Bequests. The Education Foundation also helps deliver real estate gifting seminars to CCIM Institute members and other interested parties.
