AWARDS & KUDOS

We’re pleased to announce that CREA’s Indianapolis office earned a spot on the Indiana Chamber’s Best Places to Work in Indiana list for the second year in a row for the medium size company category. Highlighted were CREA’s benefits - supporting growing families, as well as a “work hard, play hard” culture. Results were based primarily on employee surveys.

Another tax season in the books! Thank you to our developer and accountant partners who helped CREA get to the finish line and deliver the Fund audits and tax returns to our investor partners. 2018 was a particularly challenging year due to tax reform and a lot of extra work and review went in to the partnership tax returns and audits. We want to thank you for another successful year! 2019 TAX SEASON

On February 26, 2019 the IRS issued new compliance monitoring regulations which decreased the inspection notice requirement from 30 days to 15 days, requires state agencies to inspect units in all buildings and changed the minimum number of units required to be inspected to be based on a project’s size according to the Low Income Housing Credit Minimum Sample Size Chart.
