Opportunity Zones
Reduce taxes on your capital gains by investing in a new class of real estate opportunities.
Investor's questions
What are Opportunity Zones?
A program created by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 to incentivize investment in underserved communities. The program offers material tax benefits for investments made into designated Opportunity Zones.
How do I know if I qualify to invest?
You can invest using long or short term capital gains from any source including the sale of stocks, bonds, or property. These gains must be re-invested within 6 months of realization.1
What are the benefits of investing?
You can defer, reduce and even eliminate your capital gains taxes. The result is an ability to potentially double your after-tax profits compared to a typical portfolio.2

How does It Work?
The Opportunity Zones program was created to incentivize investment within lower income communities by offering material tax benefits to U.S. investors who re-invest any form of capital gains into Opportunity Funds. To qualify, investments must target “substantial improvement”, which generally means development or extensive repositioning of a property.
Defer taxes on the original capital gain until the end of 2026.
Reduce the amount of deferred taxes owed by up to 15%.
Eliminate tax on capital gains from the investment if held for 10 years.

Disciplined, Single-Asset Fund Structure
Since inception, we’ve focused exclusively on structuring single-asset funds, which we believe is the optimal structure for gaining exposure to Opportunity Zones. This structure has also encouraged discipline without a broad, multi-asset fund mandate. We have reviewed over 300 Opportunity Zone transactions to date and committed to a select few.
