The Lord calls His people to honor Him with what He has entrusted to them (Proverbs 3:9). As stewards of His gifts, we are called to use our possessions wisely and for His glory.
For many real estate investors, selling appreciated property can bring a significant tax burden. What first appears to be substantial growth in value may be reduced by capital gains taxes and other costs.
A gift of real estate may provide a wise way to steward that asset for the work of Christ’s kingdom.
By giving property to the RCUS, you may receive a charitable deduction and avoid the tax bill you would have incurred had you sold the property outright. In some cases, real estate can also be used to fund a life income gift, allowing you or your loved ones to receive income while supporting the future ministry of the RCUS.
This may be especially helpful for those who desire to give residential rental property, farmland, commercial property, or vacant land.
