Opportunity Zones

  • Passed as part of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, over 8,000 census tracts were designated across the country as “Opportunity Zones.” Investments in qualifying projects can provide tax incentives to investors with capital gains who invest in these areas.

  • If an investor has a capital gain, and invests the gain amount in a Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF), there are two potential core benefits:

    • Defer current capital gains tax owed until 12/31/2026

    • No tax owed on new earned gains from the disposition of the QOF interest or the underlying assets after 10 years of holding the QOF interest

  • A person is eligible to make an investment intended to qualify for Opportunity Zone tax benefits if the person:

    • Has realized a capital gain within the last 180 days; and

    • Invests the gain in a QOF, an investment vehicle set up to invest in Opportunity Zones.
