Philanthropy through Real Estate

🏆 79.7% of homes in ZIP 19930 are held for seasonal use — #1 in the U.S. for donatable housing wealth. This ranking comes from ALEX Intelligence’s exclusive analysis of seasonal property use in high-value ZIPs. The data reveals a hidden engine of philanthropy: second homes, not primary residences, are where the highest concentration of transferable real estate wealth lives. This is not a trend — it’s a structural shift. How does your charitable giving strategy account for seasonal-use assets? The IRS SOI 2025 data confirms a 12% YoY rise in appreciated real estate donations, especially among donors aged 65+, but the real leverage is in where that wealth is physically located. The most valuable assets for giving are not in city centers, but in remote, seasonal-use zones. This is where CRTs and DAFs are most effective.
