Emily McKinney is counsel in Nixon Peabody’s Community Development Finance group where she works primarily with the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit team, focusing on community development and revitalization matters.
I represent large institutional investors in the acquisition, financing, and syndication of real estate transactions that utilize federal low-income housing tax credits.
I help transactions run efficiently by conducting necessary due diligence, identifying key issues early in the process, and using our collective intelligence to find cost-effective solutions for our clients.
Drafting and negotiating the core documents for a transaction is a fundamental part of my practice. I work closely with my clients to ensure that the terms of the deal are structured to enable them to mitigate risk while achieving their business goals.
Affordable housing will continue to be a priority for state and local governments, and new questions of interpretation will continue to arise with tax reform and COVID relief packages and IRS and state agency notices. I look forward to assisting our clients in navigating the changing landscape, avoiding pitfalls, and structuring sound deals.
