UNDERSTANDING HISTORIC TAX CREDITS
WHAT IS THE INCENTIVE?
The federal Historic Tax Credit (HTC) program was enacted in 1976 to encourage the preservation and rehabilitation of historically significant buildings.
For a property to be eligible for the HTC Program it must be listed in the National Register of Historic Places, or be located in a registered historic district. Fortunately for the JC Penney Building, the 700 block of Broad Street is located within the Augusta Downtown Historic District, which makes this building eligible for all programs of the National Register.
TAX CREDITS
A 20 percent federal tax credit of Qualified Rehabilitation Expenditures (QRE’s) for the cost incurred during the rehabilitation of a certified historic structure for commercial, agricultural, industrial or residential rental purposes.
In addition, the State of Georgia offers two tax incentives. The first is known as the Georgia State Income Tax Credit for Rehabilitated Historic Property. This offers a 25% tax credit on qualified rehab expenses against Georgia income taxes. The second is the State Preferential Property Tax Assessment for Rehabilitated Historic Property. This freezes the county’s property tax assessment at the pre-rehab value for 8 years, escalating to the fair market value in the 10th year.
