Great video and thank you for creating it. If this is about to help everyone then helping communities means providing true affordable housing, but I'm learning more and more that affordable housing is an oxymoron. Having said that, I will see how I can benefit from this program. I'm working on starting a company building small homes using light gauge steel and this information is helpful on figuring out where to drive my business towards. It's a small business but I'm setup to prove that we can build small affordable homes in underprivileged communities as long as our intentions are not to become millionaires overnight. The way I'm planning to do this is using a concept of a mini factory for offsite building and using as much automation as possible. The construction industry is shifting toward more offsite construction, we need to use the tools and technologies that are emanating from this 4th industrial revolution to achieve the goal of affordable housing. But we can not wait for the mega investors to come and do it for us. I just realized this is for Commercial Real Estate so my comments may not apply but I will live them here anyway.

Hey man great video! Quick question, how much do you need to invest in construction and development if you are building from the ground up?

@Cperry6689 4 жыл бұрын

Justin - Great video! Just need clarification on something. Let's say you sold stock with a cost basis of $100,000 for $200,000 and wanted to utilize the tax incentives of a QOF. Would your initial investment in the QOF be $100,000 in order to match the gain 1:1? Or would your initial investment need to be the $200,000 of sales proceeds you just received? Thank you!

Hey Is the info for being “substantially improved” still the same or did IRS change it? The video stated that we have to double the adjusted basis and The site says additions to the basis of the property exceed an amount EQUAL to the adjusted basis” just wanted to know was this the same language that was used then vs now? Great video Thanks!

Hi, what's the definition of properties, eg: some one go to opp zone and start building a data center and generate business incomes, is data center considered as properties. Also does property have to be real estate development or it can be any type of business?

Not working in my community, in Houston off 610 fwy, no economic opportunities in my Opportunity zoned area, we are red lined out, Clinton Park is skipped over in Houston. Opportunity zone improvements and gentrification off 610 fwy, never hit East and South Houston, but downtown areas, heights, their brand new, and homeless population grew. This is going on around the country in every city, tax dollars, working for a few.

I sold some rental property this year resulting in some LTCG, I've made a few business purchases, also my HSA and IRA contributions have brought my income down a little. My question is could I buy into OZ with a portion of my gains and just hold it till next year, basically spreading my tax due on gains over 2 years? This would help with my health insurance mainly and next year my income will drop back down to normal. Thank you for this video, very well explained.

@youngwalkerotos 3 жыл бұрын

Honestly though, why not no taxes but the stipulation is that they have to employ a certain percentage of their workforce within the area in question? If the taxes are not in question for 5 years at a time, wouldn’t you create more agency and revenue for the area to invest in? Why would you need taxes at all at that point?

@paypalservices2724 3 жыл бұрын

I'm so confused, if you can answer this it would be great. If I realized my gain June 1st, I have until December 1st or 180 days to deposit into an opportunity zone fund. 1. Do I need to buy the property right away? Or do I have 6-12 months? 2. If I buy a new construction, does it need to be vacant for 3 years? What if someone buys the land in 2017, and built the property now in 2020, so it's technically been vacant?

@ShannonRobnett 3 жыл бұрын

YOU have 180 days to get teh funds out of your hands and into a qualified OZ fund. I would not have to be spent as of that date but remember that you have to have your funds invested in OZ deals for 5 years to get the 10% decrease in Cap gains taxed so time is not on your side. We do new construction and since its new the 3 year vacant rule is not applied.

In Fayette Alabama there are two great opportunities for opportunity fund investors. A historic, downtown hotel and aircraft hangars at the airport. Both properties are in Opportunity Zones and will meet the criteria of substantial Improvement or Ground Up building. Email me if you have funds that need a home. These projects are promoted by the City and the Fayette Area Community Development Corp. You can see the overall project within which these projects fall at growingfayette.com Contact details are on that website.

This is really bad for American freedom. The ESG score applies to this. The smart home and the internet of things is linked to the new social credit score system for America. Like the one being implemented in China today. The Smart cities and new smart home zoning laws are very very bad for new home and property ownership. Damn people.
