Description
Income tax credits; landlords participating in housing choice voucher programs. Establishes an individual and corporate income tax credit beginning with the 2010 taxable year for landlords who participate in a housing choice voucher program. Eligible landlords would receive a tax credit equal to 10 percent of the fair market value of the rent for each qualified housing unit. Qualified housing units would be dwelling units located in the Richmond Metropolitan Statistical Area that are included in a housing choice voucher program.
The Department of Housing and Community Development would administer the tax credit. The Department would not be allowed to issue more than $400,000 in tax credits in any fiscal year. Tax credits would be allowed only for that portion of the taxable year in which a dwelling unit was included in a housing choice voucher program. The bill provides a five-year carryforward period for unused tax credits. View Full Text »
