What are

Qualified Opportunity Zones and Qualified Opportunity Funds

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, enacted in late December 2017, created a new capital gains exemption for taxpayers who make long term investment in low-income communities that have been designated by the Treasury Department as “Qualified Opportunity Zones” (QOZs).

They can be invested in by rolling over capital gains into a “Qualified Opportunity Fund” (QOF). The capital gains can come from the sale of virtually any property – stocks, bonds, real estate, businesses, art and more. A QOF is an investment vehicle organized for the purpose of investing in Qualified Opportunity Zones property.
