The Kentucky Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit
A Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit is a voluntary, dollar-for-dollar credit toward a property owner’s income taxes, based on the cost of rehabilitating a Historic Property. Rehabilitation expenses must take place within 24-months. Properties listed on the National Register of Historic Places are generally eligible for the program affording a 20%-30% tax credit for qualified rehabilitation expenses. The Kentucky Rehabilitation Tax Credit may also be paired with the Federal Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit affording projects a up to 40% tax credit for qualified rehabilitation expenses.
