Tax Credit and Benefit
The Tax Credit and Benefit Practice Group has extensive knowledge and experience, on a nationwide basis, respecting development and finance, utilizing equity generated by such development incentives as Federal Historic Tax Credits, Federal New Markets Tax Credits, Federal and Missouri Low-Income Housing Tax Credits, as well as a variety of other state and local tax credits and such incentives as tax increment financing, tax abatement and tax-exempt bonds. These transactions typically involve multiple layers of debt and equity financing and we have the knowledge, skills and innovative techniques necessary to structure these complicated transactions. In particular, we have widespread experience structuring so-called historic sandwich lease transactions and historic façade easements. Further, our attorneys are regularly involved in HUD-financed development, including such programs as HOPE VI, HUD 202 and 811 capital advances, HUD-insured loans, and HOME and CDBG financing. We represent developers, syndicators, direct investors, equity funds and lenders doing business in this area.
