GIVING HOUSE HELPS SUPPORT YOUR NOT FOR PROFIT

Through the community building assistance of GIVING HOUSE and its participating real estate professionals, community foundations and not for profits can receive a steady stream of donation dollars so that they can spend more time doing the things they do best—strengthening their communities and enriching the lives of others.

Here's how it works:

Through your partnership with GIVING HOUSE, your members and supporters will have the opportunity to choose among the top agents in their communities who work with GIVING HOUSE to buy, sell, rent, or donate their homes. This can be a primary home, a secondary or vacation home, an investment property, even vacant land. GIVING HOUSE can create a donation for your not for profit through any type of real estate connection.

Upon completion of a real estate transaction, 20% of the GIVING HOUSE agent's commission is donated to charity.

15% of the total net commission will go directly to your organization to use as you see fit. 2.5% will be donated by GIVING HOUSE to community-based not for profits, and 2.5% will go back to The Giving Back Fund for overseeing and administering our programs.
