    Low Income Housing Tax Credits

    Our attorneys are among the nation’s foremost legal authorities on transactions involving the federal low-income housing tax credit, which creates 120,000 new affordable housing units each year.

    Overview

    We have contributed to every major federal housing program since its inception in 1970, and were heavily involved with the legislative efforts that led to the program’s creation. Most housing developments that use low-income housing tax credits (LIHTCs) also use other forms of federal assistance and therefore must interface with a number of public agencies. We navigate these often-complex relationships with assistance from our colleagues in the Affordable Housing and Real Estate and Public Finance practices. Our integrated knowledge and unparalleled experience are invaluable to clients leveraging LIHTCs.
