Qualified Opportunity Zones ("QOZs") were created by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and are designed to spur economic development and job creation in communities throughout the country by providing tax benefits to investors who invest eligible gains capital into these communities. QOZs allow investors to not only invest in underserved communities but also potentially avoid paying federal and state taxes on the profits earned from the fund they choose to invest in.
Join David S. Cohen and Liam T. Krahe, founders of SF QOZ Fund I in Miami, Florida, as they clarify the tax incentives of QOZs.
