Course Description
It is critical to know that Opportunity Zone Funds need to first and foremost be a sound investment, with the tax incentives serving only as a secondary benefit. A properly structured Opportunity Zone Fund allows you to defer capital gains tax on the sale of ANY asset while making an investment that potentially will generate tax-free income. In this course, you’ll learn what to look for in Opportunity Zone Fund sponsors.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify federal compliance rules, regulations and timelines
- Discover benefits and reasons to pursue Opportunity Zone Funds
- Identify the differences between Opportunity Zones and 1031 Exchanges
- Discover how to utilize Opportunity Zones to provide shelter to a “blown” 1031 Exchange
- Understand how to use depreciation to shelter income from the project(s) vs. when there is no depreciation recapture
- Implications related to federally tax-free disposition of properties upon sale
- Why investing in San Jose is a wise choice
