The Federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program enjoys the reputation of being the most successful federal housing program in history. The credit, a dollar for dollar reduction in federal tax liability, acts as a catalyst to attract private investment into the historically underserved affordable housing market. The additional capital mitigates the debt burden incurred in the construction and rehabilitation development process. Consequently, less rental income is necessary for operations.
