EVENT: Opportunity Zone Luncheon & Panel

Over 25 area professionals enjoyed an informative panel discussing the latest updates on the Opportunity Zone program, a product of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, created to spur investment in designated low-income communities. The creation of Qualified Opportunity Funds, the vehicle through which such investments are to be made, presents a tax incentive for real estate investors, private equity, venture capitalists, family offices, and individuals. NAI/Merin Hunter Codman was happy to host the event at our West Palm Beach office on Wednesday, November 28th.

Panelists from NAI/Merin Hunter Codman (Neil Merin), EisnerAmper (Steve Kreinik), Shutts & Bowen (Logan Gans) and UBS (Scott Martinho) discussed:

  • Qualified Opportunity Zone designations in South Florida
  • QOF qualification
  • Deferral of gains and basis step-ups
  • Updated guidance from Treasury and IRS
  • QOF interaction with other tax incentives
  • State tax implications
