Tax-Free Transit Benefits

Photo: Ballston Metro station signTax-free transit benefits are a proven effective tool in attracting and retaining both employees and residents. Residential properties need to not only make sure that their property is attractive to possible tenants but also to their employees. Retaining good and loyal employees is one of the largest headaches and costly factors for many residential communities. We would like to help offset those costs. Transit benefits are a low-cost answer to retaining quality employees and show that management cares about their commuting conditions. Arlington Transportation Partners (ATP) can help your residential property implement transit benefits for your employees; click on the link below to learn about all the transit benefit options.

Tax-Free Transit Benefits

Twice the percentage of Arlington residents take mass transit to work as compared to the Washington regional average; therefore, residents can also profit from a transit benefit (2004 Washington DC Region State of the Commute Survey). The program is set up a little differently than the way it is for employees, but it has proven to be a huge selling point and a wonderful amenity for residential properties. Giving your residents money every month to use mass transit or vanpooling will set you apart from other local communities and again show that management cares about the residents’ commuting conditions. Reward your residents for reducing congestion and pollution on Arlington roads! The program is easy to set up and requires little capital investment to do so. Contact us today to start a Residential Transit Benefit.
