HUD's Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Database

Ongoing research banner


HUD has updated the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) database annually since the mid-1990s to include new and rehabilitated properties placed in service. Initially, this data was collected by a contractor that worked closely with the state allocating agencies to compile the information. Following the passage of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) in 2008, and in keeping with its mandate that the state housing finance agencies (HFAs) provide HUD demographic and economic data on tenants in LIHTC units, PD&R began collecting LIHTC property and tenant information directly. The property data are available through an interactive query system at LIHTC.huduser.gov. Tabulations of the tenant data are available at https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/lihtc/tenant.html. Both the property database and tenant data tabulations are updated annually, usually in the spring.

Note: The status of this project is complete.
