Donating Easements & Selling Credits

Landowner’s Guide

Excerpt (from Introduction)

Conservation Partners consults with landowners and their professional advisors throughout the complex process of donating conservation easements and preparing and registering high-quality land preservation tax credits. In most cases, after an easement donor’s credits are registered, we help the donor market and sell his or her credit to individuals and businesses who are enthusiastic about purchasing high-quality credits and supporting land conservation in Virginia.

The Landowner’s Guide is designed to help you, as a prospective easement donor, to prepare for some of the decisions you will face as you consider an easement donation. Remember, we cannot give tax or legal advice, so you should consult with an experienced professional regarding your own tax and financial situation. We are familiar with a number of such professionals, and will be happy to help you find someone you will enjoy working with. The Landowner’s Guide also serves as an introduction to our Quality Standards, available separately from Conservation Partners. …
