The deferral of tax payments, in exchange for re/development, combined with the ability to step up the basis (by 10% of the original investment amount) of any given investment can yield some serious tax savings over the remaining period of this program. For those of us who live in these areas, we can continue to look forward to the improvement of those run-down commercial sites we see regularly.
