Four Ways to Donate Property to UW Foundation

Fred Winding, vice president for real estate at the UW Foundation, outlines four methods. Outright gift transfers full ownership for an income tax deduction up to 30 percent of adjusted gross income. unused portions may be carried forward five years. Life estate reserved lets donors receive a deduction while using the property for years. donor maintains taxes and upkeep. Life income converts nonproducing real estate into a lifetime cash stream for donor and spouse in exchange for occupancy surrender and a set annual percentage of value, with a deduction. Charitable bequest provides a property gift through a will, with no lifetime tax benefits but potential estate tax savings. For details, contact Mr. Winding at 702 Langdon St., Madison, WI 53706.
