Donations are made at the close of escrow through a reduction in Charitable Realty Agent commission. All donations are made at the clients’ discretion to a registered 501(c)3 charity, and in no way imply or constitute a relationship between Charitable Realty Agents and any partner organization.
The Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) requires all donations to be voluntary and that no finders or referral fee will be paid to any organization.

These donations are recorded in your honor but not for your personal deduction. Charitable Realty does not receive a tax deduction either.

If a client is not working directly with a Charitable Realty Agent then the donation will not occur as commission is not being paid to a Charitable Realty Broker. Starting January 2022, there will be a donation on EVERY transaction - regardless of the amount of commission being earned!
