What government grants are available for real estate investors in Orlando?

Orlando investors can access federal programs like LIHTC tax credits (allocated through Florida Housing Finance Corporation), Opportunity Zone capital gains incentives (14 designated tracts), HUD HOME and CDBG grants through local government, and Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers through Orlando Housing Authority. Local programs also include Orange County Housing Trust Fund and Florida Housing LIHTC & SAIL.

How do LIHTC tax credits work in Florida?

LIHTC credits in Florida are allocated by Florida Housing Finance Corporation. The program provides dollar-for-dollar tax credits over a 10-year period for developing or rehabilitating affordable rental housing. Both 9% competitive credits and 4% non-competitive credits (paired with tax-exempt bonds) are available. Contact Florida Housing Finance Corporation for the current Qualified Allocation Plan and application deadlines.

How many Opportunity Zones are in Orlando?

Orlando has 14 designated tracts. By investing capital gains into a Qualified Opportunity Fund targeting these zones, you can defer taxes on the original gain and potentially eliminate taxes on new appreciation if held for 10+ years. These zones often overlap with areas eligible for other incentives like LIHTC and CDBG funds.

What is the Section 8 payment standard in Orlando?

The estimated 2-bedroom Section 8 payment standard in Orlando is approximately $1,546/month. This is based on HUD Fair Market Rent and your local PHA (Orlando Housing Authority) may set standards between 90-110% of the published FMR. Contact them directly for current rates.

Can I combine government programs with private financing in Orlando?

Absolutely. Most affordable housing projects in Orlando use layered financing — combining LIHTC credits, federal grants (HOME, CDBG), local incentives, and private financing. FundNow Capital specializes in DSCR loans, bridge loans, and portfolio financing that complement government programs.
