Watch the Latest Tax Credit Workshop

2016 LIL. george at lectern

If you own, are buying, or are rehabilitating an older home, there’s a lot for you to consider: Will the changes I want to make to my home qualify for a NC preservation tax credit? What are the insurance implications of owning an older home? How do I maximize the energy efficiency of my home? Etc.

HWF’s Live in a Landmark Workshop series is the right tool to point you in the right direction. Our last workshop was held on June 4, but the City of Wilmington recorded the video for you to watch. To access the video, click HERE.
