The land owners (investors, in the case of a syndicated conservation easement offering) receive a tax deductible charitable contribution that flows through on a K-1 on goes on Schedule A of a taxpayer's Form 1040.

The ultimate goal is to build a legacy to leave to a future child and to have the freedom to go where we want, when we want, with one addendum: charitable donations to organizations that really do help those they're claiming to help.

@Tchaka OwenYou can join PenFed by making a one-time $15-25 donation to a military-related charitable organization over the phone.

And as was pointed out before, you budget ZERO for capex, an absurdly low amount for maintenance on old houses in the North, you assume zero vacancy (even for tenant turnover),  your ARVs are not supported by actual comps, and your rents are, charitably, higher than most might expect to get.You don't even throw the "home warranty as a replacement for capex" stuff into those numbers.One wonders, if you are doing this sort of deal all day long, why you need to sell seminars and mentor services.

If I were in your situation, I would wait until the house is foreclosed and buy it from the bank after this family has vacated the property.If you want to help this family, your financial assistance very well may become a charitable donation.My $0.02

If it has been used for business purposes for at least a couple of years and up until very recently, then it would likely qualify for 1031 Exchange treatment.The trust, unless she opts for some type of charitable trust, will not defer or exclude any of the taxable gain from the sale.

Half charitable drive and half self-motivated for income and financial gains.
