Transfer of Wealth

Iowa Transfer of Wealth

Between the years of 2000-2049, Iowa can expect to see $531.7 billion transfer from one generation to the next through probate estates. In 2010 through 2019 alone, $74.43 billion is expected to pass to heirs.

Jones County Transfer of Wealth

During years 2010-2019, $468 million is expected to transfer from one generation to the next through probate estates. Between 2000-2050, the estimated transfer is $3.3 billion.

Transfer of Wealth	Jones County	State of Iowa
2010-2019	$ 468 million	$ 74.43 billion
2000-2049	$ 3.3 billion	$ 531.7 billion

If just five percent of the projected transfer between 2000 and 2050 could be invested at the Community Foundation, nearly $165 million would be endowed. Figuring a five percent grant payout, an estimated $8.2 million could be available annually to improve the quality of life in our community and secure our future.
