STACKING POTENTIAL

Federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit is stackable — it can be combined with other federal, state, and local programs on the same project. Michigan and Ohio projects commonly stack this federal credit with state brownfield TIF, historic tax credits, and local abatements to maximize total incentive value.
