QOZs vs. 1031 Exchanges

National  + Weekender  | 

Qualified Opportunity Zones and 1031 Exchanges are both geared toward tax deferral of capital gains. The investor has 180 days from receipt of the gain to reinvest it. And, that is where the similarities end.

Cushman & Wakefield presented a chart, reproduced below, which compares the function of these two programs. The company concluded by indicating that, while the Opportunity Zone program offers “several potential benefits compared to a 1031 like-kind exchange,” it does have its limits.
