Better Buildings Initiative
Energy Efficient Building Tax Incentives (Sec. 179D & Sec. 45L) and ARRA Sec. 1630
Carried Interest: We opposed any change to the current law tax treatment of carried interest.
Tax Reform: No specific bill but asked that Congress take a comprehensive approach to tax reform and not enact reform for C corporations at the expense of partnerships, including S corporations and LLCs. We also asked policymakers not to tax partnerships with revenues over certain thresholds as C corporations or to pass legislation that would disadvantage real estate relative to other industries. We also asked that Congress maintain the deductibility of business interest and the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit.
Low-Income Housing Tax Credit:
H.R. 3661 and S. 1989. To make permanent the 9 percent tax credit for the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) and to extend the same policy to 4 percent LIHTCs for acquisition. All provisions.
H.R. 559 and S. 30. To provide an additional year for the extension of the placed in service date for the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit rules applicable to the GOZone. All provisions.
Additionally, we urged Congress to preserve the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit as part of any tax reform effort. Finally, although no bill is pending, we urged Congress to support making the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit more flexible by allowing developments to qualify if 40 percent of units go to families with income that average no more than 60 percent of area median income.
No specific bill, but analyzed proposals to provide 100 percent expensing for the purchase of foreclosed single family homes to be put on the rental market.
H.R. 2989 and S. 1616. To exempt certain stock of real estate investment trusts from the tax on foreign investments in United States real property interests. All provisions.
Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction Section 179D. We asked Congress to turn this deduction into a tax credit.
Estate Tax Reform: No specific bill but urged Congress to enact permanent estate tax reform with a $5 million exemption, 35 percent top rate, and a retention of stepped-up basis rules.
H.R. 3630, Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2011: Section 1201: Extension of allowance for bonus depreciation for certain business assets. Section 2001: Extension of temporary employee payroll tax reduction through 2012. Also, S. Amdt. 1465 to H.R. 3630: Section 101 Extension of Payroll Tax Holiday.
h.R. 3765 - Temporary Payroll Tax Continuation Act of 2011: Section 101: Extension of Payroll Tax Holiday
Tax Extenders: No specific bill but asked that Congress extend the following expiring tax incentives: New Markets Tax Credit (IRC Section 45D); Energy Efficient New Homes Tax Credit (IRC Section 45L); Grants for specified energy property in lieu of tax credits (IRC Section 48(d)); Increased AMT exemption amount (IRC Section 55(d)); Additional 100 Bonus Depreciation (IRC Section 168(k)); and Expensing of Brownfield Remediation Costs (IRC Section 198).
