Curious About Qualified Opportunity Zones? BKD Is Here to Help

Created under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) to boost economic development and job creation in distressed communities, qualified Opportunity Zones (OZ) allow investors to defer and reduce the recognition of gains that are reinvested into a qualified OZ Fund within 180 days. In addition, gains related to the appreciation on a qualified OZ Fund investment can be permanently excluded after a 10-year holding period. Sounds good, right?

We already assist thousands of clients from various industries across the country with developing tax strategies that help them take advantage of benefits within the tax law and reduce their tax burden.
