The Sire Group

U.S. donors typically donate more than $400 billion to the non-profit sector on an annual basis. However, less than 3% of these donations come in the form of real estate despite the fact that more than 40% of the nation's wealth is in real estate. Imagine the collective impact on our country if there was a way to untap this resource. Could we solve the affordable housing crisis? Could we provide mentorship programs, therapy, and job opportunities to help our fellow citizens who are struggling? The SIRE Group is a boutique real estate brokerage whose goal is try to answer these questions by empowering non-profits to use real estate as a tool to amplify their social impact. We accomplish this by educating non-profits, real estate brokers, and property owners about the Bargain Sale. The Bargain Sale is a section of the IRS Tax Code allowing for a property owner to sell their real estate to a non-profit for a mixture of cash plus tax deduction. This has the power in the right circumstances to net the seller more than they would have in a traditional sale as well as raise money for a great cause. We have seen the Bargain Sale at work on absolute single tenant assets, value add properties, distressed real estate in tertiary markets, and luxury homes.
