Credits & Incentives

Our Property Tax Credits & Incentives service assists with identifying and pursuing appropriate property tax-related incentives that may be associated with capital investments. Property tax incentives typically require approvals to be set in place before your property investment occurs—timing is critical. 

DMA’s property tax professionals can assist you in obtaining available property tax incentives, which may include: 

• Property tax rebates 
• Payment in lieu of taxes (PILOT) 
• Property tax abatement/exemption 
• Industrial Revenue Bonds (IRBs) 
• Value limitation 
• Freeport exemption 

Property taxes are one of the highest tax liabilities for your business. Ensuring they are minimized is a necessary component of any cost reduction strategy.
