How would you like to live in your home for the remainder of your life and then allow the WUSA Endowment Fund to use the proceeds of the sale of the home for the preservation of wetlands? A Life Estate Agreement enables you to retain the right to live on and use your property and enjoy any income produced by your property as long as you and your spouse are living. At the death of the last Life Estate holder, the WUSA Endowment Fund receives the property.

Benefits are retention of a Life Estate in your property, charitable income tax deduction, bypass of capital gains tax, and reduction of your federal estate taxes.
