State Tax Credits & Incentives Attractive Rewards
States and localities are increasingly offering tax incentives to encourage relocation and favored forms of economic activity. Such incentives include credits against income tax, payments in lieu of tax (PILOT) agreements, or reductions or eliminations of property tax for specified periods of time. Eligibility for incentives may be contingent on promising to employ a specified number of people, engaging in manufacturing activity, a specified degree of capital investment, or developing and cleaning up a contaminated area. At Kilpatrick, we assist clients in negotiating and securing state and local tax incentives packages, ensuring compliance with eligibility requirements, and summarizing available incentives for clients looking to expand existing operations or purchase an already-existing facility.
