Because you cannot own a nonprofit, it is generally not a good idea to put any of your own assets under a nonprofit unless you intend to donate it. 

@Dan Collins  Guidelines for your loan scenario:-Down Payment and Qualifying Ratio Requirements for Manually Underwritten Loans For manually underwritten loans, if the income of a guarantor, co-signer, or non-occupant borrower is used for qualifying purposes, the occupying borrower(s) must make the first 5% of the down payment from their own funds unless: the LTV or CLTV ratio is less than or equal to 80%; or the occupying borrower is purchasing a one-unit principal residence and meets the requirements to use gifts, donated grant funds, or funds received from an employer to pay for some or all of the borrower’s minimum contribution.

We thought about creating a non-profit land trust and getting donations but we are afraid the property would be gone by the time we obtain enough to cover the down payment as it would take awhile to obtain the 20% down we would need.

I figured it was about time to start contributing and networking with the people who are donating their time and experience to help new investors such as myself.

The house I worked at was a BoA foreclosure that they donated to Habitat.

I then took him to Goodwill, donated everything and dropped him off at a relatives.

He said he donates in his church to help people save their homes and could not buy them  even if it was courthouse steps..

Two of richest men (#1 Bill Gates & #3 Warren Buffet) in the world are planning on donating most of their wealth with a smaller portion going to their children.  

Oftentimes, contractors will donate any leftover materials to the Re-Store & any money that they sell them for will go to Habitat for Humanity.

Whatever the reason, I'd be grateful if you could send me any unwanted used book donations.
