What Sets Us Apart

We meet individually with each donor to explain the many benefits resulting from a donation of a qualifying conservation easement. We'll take a look at the maps that Conservation Partners has developed that showcase the conservation values of your property. When you're ready to move forward, we'll take the next step of coordinating meetings with potential easement holders and order a preliminary conservation easement appraisal.

Conservation Partners can introduce landowners to a network of experienced professional advisors including attorneys, appraisers, and CPAs, as well as to experts in our network of wildlife conservationists. We provide high-level consulting resources for donors’ attorneys, appraisers, accountants, and other professional advisors, and when necessary, we can call on an extended team of national legal, appraisal, and accounting experts to assist with the most difficult issues.

We work with landowners, their team of professional advisors, and easement holders to coordinate the process of donating easements, gathering documentation, obtaining required reviews by state agencies and land trusts, applying for tax credits, marketing credits for sale, and transferring credits to buyers. We keep the process moving.

After the recordation of your conservation easement, Conservation Partners facilitates and expedites the complex tax credit application process. Once the landowner's tax credit number is issued, the credit will be available for us to market and sell on the landowner's schedule.

Conservation Partners sells Land Preservation Tax Credits to buyers who value your conservation donation and are willing to pay market-leading prices for credits, which means a higher return for the donor. The credits we market are recognized for their quality and are preferred by risk-conscious purchasers and their advisors, many of whom return to us year after year. We have invested in sophisticated technology that make it easier than ever for Virginia taxpayers to purchase credits.
