Changing Lives in Your Community

Opportunity Zones will be one of the most transformative engines for economic growth, job creation, and innovation of our time.

Included as part of the Investing in Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, Opportunity Zones were created to spur capital infusion into underserved geographies through brand new tax incentives.

Investors in Opportunity Zone can benefit from:

  • A tax deferral on invested capital gains
  • A step-up in basis on invested capital gains
  • Tax-free disposition of their Opportunity Zone investment
