Opportunity Zones are designed to stimulate economic development in underinvested areas by providing tax incentives to investors. Established by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, they allow investors to defer capital gains taxes by reinvesting profits into designated low-income communities. When held for a period of 10 years, these investments offer the potential for significant tax benefits, including a complete step-up in basis, eliminating capital gains taxes on the growth of the investment. Opportunity Zones cover a wide range of asset classes, from real estate to small businesses, providing both financial and community impact.
