Low-Income Housing Tax Credits | NCHFA The Agency will be mailing annual privacy notices between July 20 and August 17. This is a required notice and no action is necessary or required. Low-Income Housing Tax Credits Developers seeking an allocation of federal Low-Income Housing Tax Credits must submit an application for each rental property to be considered during the single competitive annual cycle.
To be eligible for the tax credits, owners agree to keep rents affordable for a period between 15 and 30 years for families and individuals with incomes at or below 80% of the local median income. The owners are eligible to take a tax credit equal to approximately 9% of the “Qualified Cost” of building or rehabilitating the property (excluding land and certain other expenses).
The tax credit is available each year for 10 years, as long as the property continues to operate in compliance with program regulations. Owners are able to lower the amount of the property’s debt financing by exchanging the tax credits for equity investments from major financial institutions. (See Anatomy of a Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Development .)
This lowers the operating costs and makes it economically feasible to operate the property at below-market rents. For an example, view Affordability of a Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Property vs. Equivalent Market Rate . Residents are responsible for their own rent payments, unless rent subsidies are available from other programs.
