You would step into an active book of Low-Income Housing Tax Credit deals—syndications, partnerships, and regulatory compliance across multifamily and mixed-use developments. The work spans structuring equity investments, negotiating operating agreements, and guiding clients through HUD and state agency requirements. Most matters involve transaction documents rather than litigation, with clients ranging from nonprofit developers to institutional tax credit investors.
What this firm is looking for
- 8–20 years of experience in LIHTC, affordable housing, or real estate tax credit transactions
- Demonstrated ability to originate or port business in the affordable housing space
- Deep familiarity with HUD programs, state allocating agencies, and partnership structures
- Comfort working in a hybrid arrangement from the New York metro area
- Active bar membership in good standing
