Historic Tax Credits
Historic Tax Credits are financial incentives provided by the government to encourage the preservation and rehabilitation of historic buildings. When property owners restore these structures, they can receive tax credits—reducing the amount of tax they owe. This program aims to stimulate economic development and community revitalization by making it financially viable to maintain architectural heritage, fostering tourism, and creating jobs. Essentially, it helps bridge the gap between the cost of restoration and the financial benefits gained from improved properties and increased local investment.
