Historic Tax Credits

The Federal Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit (HTC) program allows building owners or third-party investors to receive a credit against Federal income taxes for the rehabilitation of qualifying historic properties. A 20% credit is available for the substantial rehabilitation of commercial, industrial or residential buildings that are certified as historic. The HTC totals 20% of the “qualified rehabilitation expenses” of the project and is claimed over a five-year compliance period.

Our HTC experience ranges from large multi-faceted mixed-use and commercial projects to smaller HTC transactions twinned with New Markets Tax Credits and/or other state and local financial incentives. For project sponsors, River Ridge provides pre-development, structuring, and closing execution services, including:

  •  Review of historic qualification/status
