REAL ESTATE DONATIONS

Michigan Public Real Estate Program

Donating real estate to Michigan Public is a great way to provide support and funding for the community programs you love. Contributions from our audience are the largest source of funding and support activities like new initiatives, long-term investigative projects, and outstanding daily reporting. Michigan Public is the public radio station licensed to the Regents of the University of Michigan. The station airs news and information content 24 hours per day, seven days per week via five FM signals; WUOM 91.7 FM in Ann Arbor and Detroit, WVGR 104.1 FM in Grand Rapids, WRSX 91.3 FM in Port Huron, WLNZ 89.7 FM in Lansing and WFUM 91.1 FM in Flint, and online at michiganpublic.org.

About Real Estate Donations

Michigan Public partners with CARS (Charitable Adult Rides & Services) to process real estate donations to benefit Michigan Public. Our program takes any property type (land, homes, commercial) in any location so long as there is equity. Even if you owe back taxes, have a mortgage balance, or deferred maintenance, it's no problem. We will pay off all loans, liens, commissions owned and pay all closing costs. If you have a real estate asset that is costing you money or not being utilized, donating it is a great way to give back and you may even claim a significant tax deduction!
