What is a Qualified Opportunity Zone?

A Qualified Opportunity Zone (QOZ) is a designation created by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 to encourage investment in economically distressed communities. The program allows investors to defer and potentially reduce capital gains taxes by investing in Qualified Opportunity Funds (QOFs), which are investment vehicles that deploy capital into businesses or real estate projects located in designated Opportunity Zones.

POTENTIAL TAX BENEFITS OF OPPORTUNITY ZONE INVESTING

To receive the tax benefits associated with opportunity zone funds (QOZ), an investor must invest capital gains. Investors have 180 days to invest into a qualified opportunity zone fund after the date of their initial capital gains event.
