Low-Income Housing Tax Credits

access@home | Project Profile
National Equity Fund, Inc.

Since 1986, the federal low income housing tax credit has helped fund more than one million new homes that are affordable to low-income families, the formerly homeless, the elderly and the disabled. It offers institutional investors a credit against their federal income tax in return for their low income housing investments. As a tax credit syndicator, LISC’s National Equity Fund, Inc. (NEF) raises money from investors and identifies low incoming housing projects in which to invest that capital.
