Tax Credit leverage Citywide Development Corp recently secured significant federal and state New Markets Tax Credits totaling over $9.5 million for development projects, indicating strong appetite and experience with incentivized financing. This presents an opportunity to offer targeted funding advisory, tax equity optimization, and partner introductions to financial institutions seeking NMTC-enabled deals.
Growth Opportunities Recent recognition as a top location for economic development and ongoing project financing signals a healthy pipeline and potential for regional expansion. Prospective outreach could focus on advisory services for site development, permitting coordination, and connections to public-private partnership programs.
