Brenda Slochowsky brings a wealth of strategic insight to the Firm’s Tax Exemptions and Zoning Incentives Department, where she navigates clients through New York City’s intricate affordable housing regulatory framework. Her comprehensive understanding of both the Voluntary Inclusionary Housing program and its successor, the Universal Affordability Preference (UAP) program, enables developers and property owners to maximize development potential while ensuring meticulous regulatory compliance. Likewise, her experience in complying with the affordable housing requirements under the Mandatory Inclusionary Housing (MIH) program has proven invaluable in helping clients secure necessary approvals to advance developments subject to these obligations
Prior to joining Belkin Burden Goldman, LLP in March 2025, Brenda distinguished herself as an associate at Seiden & Schein, P.C. During her tenure there, she cultivated exceptional practical expertise in affordable housing initiatives, successfully processing, through completion, numerous complex applications under the Voluntary Inclusionary Housing (VIH), Mandatory Inclusionary Housing (MIH), and the now-expired Privately Financed Affordable Senior Housing program.
