📝 Episode Description:

This week on Tax Credit Talks, Hallie and Parker dig deep into growing tension around Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC). With housing demand soaring and new apartment construction slowing, LIHTC remains a critical—but contested—tool in today’s market.

We break down the proposed LIHTC Elimination Act introduced by Representatives Grothman and Gosar, who claim the credit benefits banks and developers more than it benefits tenants. In contrast, we spotlight recent wins in Cincinnati, where strategic coordination unlocked new LIHTC projects and real community impact. Plus, we unpack a proposed 30% basis boost for rural and tribal housing in the House’s FY 2025 reconciliation bill and what it could mean for 4% bond-financed deals.

Whether you’re developing projects, placing credits, or shaping strategy, this episode offers a clear look at competing visions for LIHTC’s future—and the stakes for affordable housing nationwide.
