The Homeowners’ Historic Property Reinvestment Act is proposed New Jersey legislation that would provide a refundable state income tax credit to help homeowners restore and preserve historic properties. The goal is to encourage investment in New Jersey’s historic homes while protecting the state’s architectural and cultural heritage.
