AWARDS & KUDOS
Congratulations to Woda Cooper Companies on the deserved recognition of Prospect Yard as a winner of the Ruth Ratner Award. Prospect Yard is an adaptive reuse community, serving 42 families in Cleveland. Given annually this award is presented to “downtown community members and entities to recognize achievement in the advancement of downtown Cleveland.” HAPPY RETIREMENT, WAYNE!
It has truly been an honor and privilege to have had Wayne Nelis a part of CREA’s story for the last 14 years. CREA is better today for his efforts, work, and humor. While he will always be a part of our work family, we wish Wayne the very best (including lots of golf and beach time) in his retirement!
At this time, the majority of the CREA Fund audits and tax returns have been delivered to investors. This tax season was a challenging one due to changes in tax legislation with little IRS guidance as well as the ever changing COVID environment. There are a few funds that are being wrapped up in May due to delays in getting lower tier information. Overall, it was another successful tax season! 2021 TAX SEASON
