Tax exemptions remove certain items or activities from taxation entirely. Texas offers sales tax exemptions for manufacturing equipment, franchise tax exemptions for small businesses, and property tax abatements through local taxing jurisdictions. These programs can significantly reduce operating costs for qualifying businesses.
Real Estate Programs
Texas Real Estate Grants, Loans & Incentives
Texas has one of the most active real estate markets in the nation, driven by sustained population growth and business relocations. Real estate developers and property managers may qualify for property tax abatements, tax increment financing (TIF), SBA 504 loans for commercial property, and local economic development incentives for projects in target areas.
Program Types
Programs Available for Real Estate Businesses
Texas real estate businesses may be eligible for these types of government programs, sourced from federal, state, and local agencies.
Government-backed loans provide below-market-rate financing for Texas businesses through SBA 7(a), SBA 504, Microloans, USDA rural lending, and CDFI programs. These loans typically offer lower interest rates, longer repayment terms, and lower down payments than conventional bank financing.
Business incentives are performance-based programs offered by state and local governments to attract investment and create jobs. Texas programs include the Texas Enterprise Fund, Chapter 380/381 agreements, tax increment financing, and deal-closing funds that provide direct financial incentives tied to job creation and capital investment commitments.
These are categories of programs in our database. Your screening report shows all programs that match your specific real estate business profile.
