Retained Life Estates
(Gift example*)

You have always loved your home and have no plans to move from it. It has appreciated significantly since you bought it, and today it is the largest asset in your estate. You are considering a gift to Pomona College in memory of your sister but cannot locate an asset that you can part with comfortably.

You decide to donate your house to us, retaining a life estate for yourself and your spouse. You have secured an independent appraisal stating that your house is worth $250,000. The mortgage has been paid off.

Here are the benefits of this gift:

Husband and Wife, 70 and 68

Asset Value

$250,000

Charitable Deduction

$74,446
