[vc_row][vc_column][vc_toggle title=”Historic Tax Credits & Economic Incentives” style=”rounded_outline” color=”white” size=”lg” el_class=”red-toggle”]Many commercial and residential historic rehabilitation projects are eligible for various types of development financial incentives. However, most of these incentives have complicated, and often vague requirements – such as the federal Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation – and require working with local, state and federal preservation commissions and agencies. The key to maximizing historic rehabilitation-related financial opportunities is in developing creative and comprehensive strategies at the commencement of any project and implementing a plan that insures the greatest return possible within the proper time frames.McNair Historic Preservation works closely with tax credit clients and members of their design and construction team to ensure that all of the proposed rehabilitation work complies with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation, as required by the historic tax credit programs. McNair Historic Preservation staff document buildings before and after construction; prepares the tax credit applications; coordinate the application process with the state and federal reviewing agencies; and remain a liaison between our clients and the reviewers throughout the project.
Working with tax incentive professionals early in the process can reduce your development time and costs, and have a positive impact on the quality of the project and your access to tax credits. With our experience in state and historic tax credit certification, and our strong relationships with National Park Service review staff, State Historic Preservation offices and local Historic District Commissions, we can help you move your project forward and benefit from significant financial incentives.

[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Historic Designation” style=”rounded_outline” color=”white” size=”lg” el_class=”red-toggle”]McNair Historic Preservations accepts projects for all forms of National, State, and Local historical designation and assessments throughout the country. We take great pride in carefully and correctly identifying, researching, and evaluating individual properties, multiple property submissions, and historic districts.The National Register of Historic Places and National Landmark Status is the nation’s honor roll for historic buildings, structures, objects, and sites. Listing on the National Register recognizes a property’s local, regional or national significance and qualifies the property for potential grants, tax credits, and economic incentives that provide additional financing to make revitalization efforts a reality. The National Register includes individually significant resources and groups of resources that are listed as historic districts. Our goal is to provide property owners with direction to document historically significant structures while also maximizing economic and development incentives.
Many communities use the identification of historic buildings and the evaluation of their historical significance as a tool to help prioritize short-term and long-term planning efforts and to focus public dollars on strengthening areas of the community that reflect a shared history. Documenting a historic site is also required for tax credit applications and to satisfy the historic resource identification requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
