Benefits of Purchasing Transferable State Tax Credits

How Buying Now Can Reduce Your Tax Expense

Transferable State Tax Credits are designed to be sold to third party buyers to foster economic growth. These tax reduction programs focus on transactions that:

  • Are expressly designed and promoted by the State, creating maximum value with minimal risk
  • Allow the buyer to “buy down” their liability by acquiring tax credits at a discount
  • Generate an immediate reduction in the buyer’s tax liability as the credits can be utilized immediately against estimated payments
  • Produce a positive cash flow effect quickly with an immediate increase in operating earnings.

  • Purchase credits for their 2009 liability and receive a refund of estimates previously paid
