Expert Guidance through Tax Credit Bureaucracy

Every year the 'U.S. Department of the Treasury' allocates millions of dollars in Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) to each state. Applying for and receiving an allocation of credits can be long, difficult, and competitive. CR Builders has a team that not only works alongside their partners to acquire these credits, but also puts them to use building quality, dignified, and affordable housing for those who need it most.
