Nov. 4, 2025: Exploring a New Incentive to Help Nonprofits Finance Renovation, Preservation of Affordable Rental Housing

While changes to the low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) will help address America's affordable housing shortage, there remains a significant gap to help renovate and preserve affordable rental housing'a gap that could be addressed by a proposed tax incentive that would allow nonprofit developers and property managers to raise capital from individual investors to finance those improvements. In this week's podcast, Michael Novogradac, CPA, Novogradac partner Kevin Wilson, CPA, and Peter Lawrence, Novogradac's chief public policy officer, discuss the proposal, including why there's a need, how it would work, where it is in the legislative process and how a new Novogradac working group is addressing the issue.
