Gifts of Real Estate
Donating appreciated real estate, such as a home, vacation property, undeveloped land, farmland, ranch or commercial property can make a great gift to OMSI.
How to make a gift of real estate
You may deed part or all of your real estate property to OMSI by executing or signing a deed transferring ownership. Your gift will be based on the property's fair market value, which must be established by an independent appraisal.
Other considerations
