How to make a gift of real estate
Your real property may be given to University of Oklahoma Foundation if we are able to accept it after performing due diligence on the property. You may deed part or all of your real property to University of Oklahoma Foundation. Your gift will generally be based on the property's fair market value, which you must establish by obtaining an independent appraisal.
