Debra Shantz
Shantz had 13 years of development experience working as John Q. Hammons general counsel and advisor prior to moving into the LITC world. Debbie entered the Affordable Housing world with a set of questions: “What if a housing development could offer more than just housing? “What kinds of services would really impact residents lives in a positive way?” She found the answers by creating strategic partnerships with the non-profit organizations already entrenched in the community. Debbie inspires communities to work together to provide the essential support services necessary to break the cycle of poverty.
As a tax credit specialist, Debbie has a command of Low Income Tax credits, both state and federal.
