According to the IRS: A Qualified Opportunity Zone (QOZ) is an economic development program where new investments made, under certain conditions, may be eligible for preferential tax treatment. The QOZ program provides a tax incentive for investors to re-invest their unrealized capital gains into Qualified Opportunity Funds that are dedicated to investing into QOZs designated by Pennsylvania’s Governor. Downtown Allentown has three census tracts that have been designated for a Qualified Opportunity Zone, and all four of these investment properties are in this QOZ zone. Downtown Allentown, PA, has been burgeoning in recent years due to another economic program called the Neighborhood Improvement Zone (NIZ). The NIZ legislation created in 2009 has inspired major developers such as City Center Investment Corp. to invest approximately $800M into major development projects that have helped with the transformation of Downtown Allentown. Recent mixed-use projects such as Five City Center, 520 Loft, Tower 6, and a newly proposed 120 unit apartment community at 9th and Hamilton Street have added to the growth of this outstanding City. The following properties offered for sale are located within a block of these significant developments. Buildings are located in a qualified opportunity zoned which offers Tax advantage that is tailored to investors to defer taxes by reinvesting capitals gains from an asset sale into a qualified opportunity fund during the 180-days period.
