Planned

The D.C. Council has passed legislation to reduce the tax rate for office-to-residential conversion projects, allowing them to qualify for residential tax rates at the point of permit issuance. This change aims to incentivize the conversion of vacant office buildings into residential properties, reversing a previous policy that required projects to be fully completed before receiving tax benefits.
