About Heritage Consulting Group
Company History
John M. Tess founded Heritage Consulting Group in 1982 in Portland, Oregon, in response to the growing interest in historic property rehabilitation. He had gained expertise in historic preservation, including state and federal tax incentive programs, while working for the State of Oregon Historic Preservation Office.
Since its inception, Heritage Consulting Group has specialized in securing local, state and federal tax incentives, and in preparing nominations for the National Register of Historic Places. Heritage has also obtained Tax Act Certifications and advised on Section 106 issues.
With successful results in performing these services over the past 25 years, Heritage possesses a broad understanding of government policies, application processes and the most effective way to achieve a positive outcome for our clients. As recognized leaders in the historic tax credit industry, we work closely with leading attorneys, accounting firms and equity investors active in the historic tax credit arena.
