Wisconsin’s New Housing Credit Plan

Wisconsin’s housing revolution is heating up as Governor Evers and WHEDA unveil a bold new plan to distribute tax credits in 2027 and 2028, aiming to build thousands more affordable units for low- and moderate-income families, seniors, and workers. Since 2019, they’ve already helped create 33,000 homes, and last year alone, $84 million in credits funded nearly 4,000 new units across 40 communities. The updated strategy boosts credit caps, introduces county-level limits, and reshapes project scoring to prioritize cost efficiency and long-term stability—ensuring resources reach every corner of the state. With WHEDA’s historic $644 million in credits since 1986 creating or renovating over 61,000 units, this bipartisan push is turning the tide on affordability, giving developers the tools they need to build smarter, faster, and more sustainably.
