Sterling Expertise
Working with you to pioneer opportunities & innovate transactions since 1979, we were among the first to structure tax credits with tax-exempt bonds.
Today, tax-exempt bond transactions represent over 50% of our ongoing business.
Our experience ranges from federal, local & state housing initiatives & demonstration programs, to award-winning state tax credit transactions & historic properties.
Irrespective of the type of transaction, we maximize sources of funding & benefits to developers & investors.
