Tax credit investors and project lenders require competent appraisers and market analysts

The contributory value added through the various tax credit programs provides the economic feasibility required for a successful project.  It is critical that the analyst be intimately familiar with the various programs and the role that tax credits play in the investment process.

The New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) can help finance a wide variety of business ventures, including commercial and mixed-use real estate developments, historic rehabilitations, and renewable energy facilities in low-income communities. Redstone helps clients assess risk and determine the feasibility of NMTC investments.  We have worked on various types of NMTC-financed projects including office buildings, retail centers, and mixed-use properties.

Renewable energy is now the key driver of innovation.  At Redstone, we understand the complexities of the various renewable energy tax credit programs, including the Production Tax Credit for Renewable Energy, Solar Energy Investment Tax Credit, and the New Markets Tax Credit, that can help finance commercial renewable energy development.

The federal historic tax credit is one of the primary resources behind downtown real estate investment and community revitalization.  Frequently used alongside low-income housing tax credits and/or state tax credits, the historic tax credit generates significant private investment.  A credible analysis of the HTC contribution to an investment requires a competent appraiser. Because of our familiarity with historic tax credits, we are frequently turned to for our comprehensive analyses. 

Redstone appraisers and market analysts are recognized by federal, state, and local housing authorities as qualified LIHTC appraisers and market analysts.  Our reports are prepared in accordance with model content standards appropriate to the program.

Redstone’s qualified professionals have participated in numerous transactions involving various tax credit programs, and remain current with ongoing legislation which may impact the future of these resources.

Redstone understands that timing is a key factor in complex tax credit investments, and our staff is committed to producing high-quality comprehensive analyses that eliminate valuation-related delays.   When choosing an appraiser, make sure they have the competency level required to provide a credible analysis.
