story

EquityPlus is a privately-held investment and advisory firm focused on building value using federal and state tax credit investment programs.

EquityPlus was born out of repeated requests by project developers (both nonprofit and for-profit) for assistance in navigating the complex world of tax advantaged transactions. Founded in 2011 by Tim McCarty and Avram Fechter—each with a decade of experience in investment banking and/or real estate development services—the EquityPlus team works with both investors and project developers to structure, underwrite, close, develop, and manage tax advantaged development projects across the country. Tax credit and government-sponsored lending programs are great tools to reduce your project’s financing costs, but they can be complex and especially difficult to make work together. Let the experience of an EquityPlus advisor provide the expertise and resources to help you achieve your goals.
