REHABILITATION TAX CREDIT
A federal tax incentive to encourage real estate developers to renovate, restore and reconstruct old buildings. Buildings placed in service before 1936 are eligible for a 10\% credit, and certified historic structures are eligible for a 20\% credit. The credit applies to the building's rehabilitation costs, but not to the cost of purchasing the building or to repairing sidewalks, parking lots and landscaping. The credit amount increases slightly if the building is also located in a specific disaster area.
