Opportunity Zone tax benefits
Three potential federal tax benefits for qualifying Opportunity Zone investments made in 2027 and beyond.
Reinvest eligible capital gains in a Qualified Opportunity Fund and defer federal tax for up to five years, unless an earlier inclusion event occurs.
A qualifying five-year hold provides a basis increase equal to 10% of your deferred gain, reducing the original gain subject to federal tax.
After at least ten years, a qualifying election can exclude eligible appreciation in your Opportunity Fund investment from federal capital gains tax.

Our team will call to discuss the details.
For qualifying investments made on or after January 1, 2027. Timely reinvestment, eligibility, required elections, holding periods and fund compliance apply. The remaining original deferred gain becomes taxable after five years, or sooner after an inclusion event. The appreciation exclusion is subject to a 30-year basis cap. These program benefits are not a determination of Fund III’s eligibility. California does not conform to these federal OZ incentives. Consult your tax, legal and financial advisors.

Fund III is expected to focus on multifamily development in downtown San Jose. No specific project has been identified and no land has been acquired. Investors would rely on the manager to source and select investments within the strategy described in the final offering documents.
This page is intended for accredited investors interested in learning about Urban Catalyst’s planned Fund III. Requesting information does not establish eligibility to invest or complete any required verification.
The minimum investment in Fund III is $250,000. Any investment would be governed by the final offering documents, which should be reviewed before making a decision.
The projects shown are examples from Urban Catalyst’s existing portfolio. They are not identified here as Fund III investments. Any future Fund III portfolio and investment strategy would be described in its offering documents.
Benefits depend on eligible gains, investment timing, qualifying fund and property requirements, holding periods, and ongoing compliance. The 2027 framework differs from the original rules. Do not assume Fund III or a particular investment qualifies; review the offering documents with your own tax advisor. Read our Opportunity Zones 2.0 overview →
