Qualified opportunity funds are tax-advantaged investment vehicles created by the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act, enacted in December 2017. By reinvesting capital gains into a qualified opportunity fund within 180 days after the gains are realized, investors can defer recognition of those gains until as late as December 31, 2026.

If, when the deferred gains are recognized, the taxpayer has held the investment in the qualified opportunity fund for at least five years, he or she will only need to recognize 90% of the capital gains he or she deferred. If the taxpayer has held the investment for at least seven years, he or she will recognize only 85% of the deferred gains.

Additionally, if the taxpayer holds his or her investment in the qualified opportunity fund for at least 10 years, then any gain on that investment between purchase and sale will escape federal income taxation altogether.

These benefits are available for gains on all kinds of capital assets, including:

  • Art and other collectibles;
  • Automobiles, aircraft, and equipment;
  • Bitcoin and other digital assets;
  • Intellectual property and other intangible assets;
  • Real estate; and
  • Stocks, bonds, and other investments.
