“I am investing heavily in Qualified Opportunity Zones to defer my capital gains, what happens to my deferred tax liability if the underlying real estate project goes bankrupt?”
Qualified Opportunity Zone investments can create a tax picture that depends on both the original deferred gain and what happens to the project itself. If the underlying real estate project becomes insolvent, the treatment of the deferred liability often turns on the structure of the fund, whether the interest is still held, and whether any triggering event has occurred. In many cases, the timing of recognition, the character of the original gain, and any loss-related consequences are important factors, along with the bankruptcy process and the investor’s basis in the investment. Going through your records with a CPA usually surfaces the answer in under an hour.
