The Tax Deduction Breakdown
We’re not just any environmental program; the IRS has given us the official thumbs up as a 501c3 Non-Profit Corporation. What’s that mean for you? Tax deductions for your generosity in keeping things out of landfills.
1. IRS-Approved Environmental Program
Our appraisal process isn’t a one-size-fits-all affair. It considers what it would cost today to replace the property improvements, excluding the value of the underlying land. This market-driven approach ensures a fair evaluation that reflects the tangible impact of your contribution.
2. Non-Cash Charitable Tax Deductions
Ever donated something and wished you could get a little something back for it? That’s where our Non-Cash Charitable Tax Deductions come into play. When you donate real estate improvements to Harvest, you’re not just decluttering; you’re making a charitable contribution that can translate into significant tax benefits.
3. Fair Valuation by IRS-Qualified Appraisers
We don’t pull numbers out of thin air. The appraisal of your donated real estate improvements is performed by an IRS-Qualified Real Estate Appraiser. These professionals ensure that the value assigned to your contribution is not just accurate but in line with IRS guidelines.
4. Consideration of Market Value
Our appraisal process isn’t a one-size-fits-all affair. It considers what it would cost today to replace the property improvements, excluding the value of the underlying land. This market-driven approach ensures a fair evaluation that reflects the tangible impact of your contribution.
5. Supporting Documentation for IRS Compliance
We take IRS compliance seriously. Your donation is backed by an IRS-qualified appraisal, complete with a duly signed IRS Form 8283 by both the appraiser and Harvest’s Executive Director. This ensures that every step of the process adheres to IRS rules and regulations.
6. Donor Recognition for Environmental Stewardship
We don’t just stop at the paperwork. Harvest Eco-Salvage believes in recognizing your dedication to keeping usable building materials out of landfills. Your tax deduction isn’t just a financial acknowledgment; it’s a salute to your role in environmental stewardship.
7. Donation Acknowledgment from Harvest
When you contribute to Harvest Eco-Salvage, you receive more than just a tax deduction. You get a personalized donation acknowledgment letter from us, detailing the improvements you’ve donated and their appraised value. It’s our way of saying thank you for making a difference.
Harvest Eco-Salvage: More Than Just Demolition Salvage
We Handle More Than Just Wrecking Balls
Whether it’s a complete teardown or just a major facelift, we’re your go-to for salvaging usable building materials from properties set for demolition or substantial remodeling. Your deduction is based on what it’s really worth, not what you might find it priced at in the thrift store.
Our program doesn’t just stop at salvaging doors, windows, vanities, cabinets, lights, and fixtures. We include so much more. We’re able to glean all concrete slabs, outdoor landscaping features and controls, gates, timber beams, solar panels, and more.
