        This IPED conference to be held April 7-8, 2010 at The Liberty Hotel in Boston, MA., is intended for newcomers to the field as well as those seeking an up-to-the-minute refresher course. This seminar presents the basic rules governing the LIHTC and how the tax credit is utilized in today’s transactions; a “hands on” analysis of a financial model generated for a typical tax credit project; an overview of the legal, accounting, and business issues involved in negotiating transactions; a practical look at tax credit transactions from the lender, agency, developer, and investor perspectives; special issues that arise in deals involving non-profits; the basic rules for when tax credits are used together with tax-exempt bonds; and real world advice on the occupancy and compliance essentials that are critical to the long-term success of every project.</description>

      <title>Opportunities for Affordable Housing Preservation in Challenging Times</title>
      <link>http://www.ipedinc.net/Conferences/Opportunities_for_Affordable_Housing_Preservation_in_Challenging_Times_May_2010.aspx</link>
      <description>This IPED conference will be held May 18th and 19th, 2010 in Chicago. Recent times have brought many new opportunities and challenges to our industry. The liquidity crunch created by the global economic crisis continues to affect our industry—making it even more difficult to develop affordable housing around the country. At the same time, changes in policy at HUD and the implementation of the incentives in the stimulus package have dramatically changed how affordable housing and community development deals get done. Led by industry experts, this conference will provide candid insights, observations, and real-life examples for how to address these issues in a changing economy. It will convene some of the most experienced developers, financiers, technical experts, policy makers, and advocates who are redefining how affordable housing and community development are being developed in this country.</description>
