Tax Credits

The State of Connecticut can provide financial help if your house qualifies. The program provides a 30% tax credit, which is converted to a cash payment to the homeowner, for up to $30,000 per dwelling unit for the rehabilitation of owner-occupied buildings. Hundreds of homes in Norwalk qualify for this program.

Your house must be listed in the State or National Register of Historic Places and must be in a qualified census tract. In Norwalk, this includes:

• Golden Hill Historic District
• Camp Street Historic District
• Parts of the Norwalk Green National Historic District
• Hanford Place Historic District: Haviland and Elizabeth Streets
  • Roughly bounded by Haviland and Day Streets, Hanford Place, and South Main Street
• South Main and Washington Streets Historic District:
  • 68–139 Washington Street
  • 2–60 South Main Street
  • North Main Street from Washington Street to Ann Street
