Opportunity Zones Connect Private Capital with Economic Growth
Opportunity zones were created as part of the Tax Cuts and Job Acts of 2017 to stimulate long-term private
investments in low-income urban and rural communities nationwide. By providing tax benefits to investors,
opportunity zone fund investments are intended to promote economic growth in distressed areas.
Tax Advantages that Grow with Time
With three levels of tax advantages, qualified opportunity zone fund (QOF) investments can lead to permanent
elimination of capital gains taxes.
The level of tax deferral grows over time as long as the investment is maintained in the QOF.
Initial Tax Deferral
Defer capital gains
taxes from initial sale of
stocks, bonds, real estate,
businesses and other assets,
by investing in a QOF.
Partial Elimination
Reduce capital gains taxes by
10%, if the investment is held
for 5 years.
Complete Elimination
Exclude (forgive) capital gain
taxes from QOF appreciation,
if held for at least 10 years.

QOF within 180 days

deferred capital

fund to achieve partial or complete elimination of tax.

Consider the Risks:
Always remember that each property is unique and past performance is no guarantee of future results. Real estate-related investments involve substantial risks.
There are tax risks associated with an investment in the Investor Units, including the possibility that government regulations regarding Opportunity Zone investments
may change.
Information about properties must be read in conjunction with the confidential private placement memorandum for each Opportunity Zone Fund, which contains
additional important risk disclosures and more specific information about each Fund. This is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy an Opportunity
Zone Fund and is for educational purposes only. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors to evaluate the tax consequences of an Opportunity
Zone Fund interest.
