Building Green is enticing for a number of reasons. One of the best reasons for building green is to take advantage of the available state and federal tax benefits. Masters of Tax and Cost Segregation
Julio P. Gonzalez,
Engineered Tax Services, and
Margaret "Marky" A. Moore,
Capital Review Group, will give you a complete understanding of the financial benefits of Building Green, from LEED qualifications, Tax Deductions and IRS Guidelines to Contractor and Developer Benefits, and Best Practices for Building Cost Savings. This program will pay for itself many times over in the information you receive.
Please plan to join us for the first annual event. This program will be offered as a live web cast, offering a unique opportunity to those that would otherwise be unable to attend.
