Was it a 2018 zone?
About 100% of this tract's land lay in a 2018 Opportunity Zone: 22019001600 (100%). Those designations end December 31, 2028. For 2027 and 2028 the two maps run side by side, and which one matters depends on when the investment is made.
What applies here
A gain invested in a Qualified Opportunity Fund after December 31, 2026 is deferred for up to five years. Held five years, basis rises by 10%. Held at least ten years, the investor can elect to exclude appreciation, measured no later than year 30. See the OZ 2.0 rules.
