Mass solar incentives overview:https://www.solarpowerrocks.com/massachusetts/Indy solar incentives overview: https://www.solarpowerrocks.com/indiana/Mass has a great SREC program where you get paid well for every kWh produced, and you also have expensive electricity there so just by not paying a bill you'd save a lot more than other states with less expensive electricity.Indy offers a sales tax exemption and property tax exemption, and if your utility is NIPSCO there is even a .17/kWh feed in tariff, so depending on where your properties are it might make sense financially, and as you mentioned the soft value of doing something good for the environment is often a bigger driving factor for many people.

buying land for multifamily development?
1 May 2019 | 6 replies
Creative and sky is the limit. from is flat piece of dirt and turn it into nice housing that people will enjoy living there is rewarding and a sense of great accomplishment. 3. skill building, it require many areas of expertise from start to finish. the amount of knowledge and skills one will learn is a lot more than just flips or buy and hold. from the understanding of zoning, city planning, drafting up plan with architect and engineer, approvals, documentations and financing. the list goes on and on. maybe this is as much as a cons than a pros depends on how one sees it. 4. development low income housing, we have a housing crisis, and developer are not focusing on people with low income, they have their eyes on where the money is. dealing with state programs can be lengthy but worth the effort in my opinion if the outcome is to build something that is profitable at the same time giving family a better home/environment so their kids can thrive.
