Opportunity Zones

In 2017, Opportunity Zones were created by the Federal Government to spur investment and development in designated areas located throughout the Country.

In Maryland, there are 149 zones.

While Opportunity Zone investments are commonly identified by commercial real estate developers, CREative Solutions is here to help YOU and your small business realize these same powerful, long term tax incentives in Baltimore City, Baltimore County, Harford County & Cecil County.

These potential tax incentives include NO capital gains tax on the sale of your business after 10 years.

• Created in 2017 under Tax Cuts & Jobs Act in 2017
• Allows investors to defer capital gains by investing those gains in federally designated areas
• Whats not as well-published is the tax incentives available to small businesses
• Ideal for new businesses, but also extremely relevant for existing businesses – an OZ will empower the exit strategy and ultimate sale of your business
• Consider a 10 year plan where you keep all of the value that you created in building and growing your business
• Consider a 10 year plan where you’ll pay ZERO capital gains tax on the sale of your business and not have to pay away an enormous amount of your Company’s value in income tax when you sell it
• Consider working with us at CREative Solutions to empower your participation in Opportunity Zone investing

Whether you are starting a new business or willing to relocate, or grow, your existing business, CREative Solutions can help you identify, structure and execute an Opportunity Zone business plan.

Let’s work together to add tremendous value, and optionality, to the exit strategy of your small business by strategically locating in an Opportunity Zone.
