The Trust is working with Congress to secure federal historic-tax incentives for people who want to rehabilitate their houses. Specifically, Trust staff are working to amend existing incentives to rehab hurricane-damaged historic commercial buildings; develop a new tax-credit program for rehabbing owner-occupied historic houses; and create a two-year, $60 million fund that would offer grants to help save properties listed in, or eligible for listing in, the National Register of Historic Places.
