Our deep expertise facilitated the development of a highly efficient total capital stack resulting in the following: ✅Cost-Efficiency: Historic Tax Credits (HTCs) enhance your savings while bridge financing provides immediate liquidity, ensuring your projects stay on track. C-PACE financing aligns perfectly, as many older buildings need energy-efficient upgrades - and through a C-PACE structure it can be done without upfront costs. ✅Maximized Savings: HTCs combined with C-PACE unlock unparalleled savings potential. These incentives not only reduce your project costs, but they will reduce operational costs and enhance property value. ✅Streamlined Process: Our expertise in HTCs ensures efficient navigation of the intricate financing landscape, saving you time and hassle.
