Breaking Down the Opportunity Zones Transparency, Extension and Improvement Act

In September of 2023, the US House of Representatives introduced the “Opportunity Zones Transparency, Extension and Improvement Act” (H.R. 5761). If passed, this bipartisan legislation would:

  • Extend the investment and gain deferral period for two years (December 31, 2028)

  • Re-activate the 10% basis step-up. 

  • Reinstate and expand reporting requirements to promote transparency, ensure the program is operating as intended, and allow for the tracking of long-term outcomes in designated communities.

  • De-certify high income Opportunity Zones and provide states with the opportunity to designate new census tracts to replace any that are disqualified.

  • Allow investments through a Fund of Funds, potentially helping smaller communities and projects raise equity more easily.

  • Establish a State and Community Dynamism Fund to help provide operating support and technical assistance to underserved communities.

As with any investment, it is important to keep your expectations realistic and research your options before making any decisions.
