More than curb appeal, Opportunity Zones are new location-based tax incentives that may sweeten your business deal.
Turn capital gains into long-term value. Opportunity Zones can help you defer taxes, grow after-tax returns, and support community development. At Sorren, we anticipate opportunities others miss. We help you evaluate whether an Opportunity Zone strategy fits your goals and guide you from planning through ongoing compliance.
What Opportunity Zones Are
Established in 2017, Opportunity Zones are federally designated areas that attract private investment through tax incentives. Investors can roll eligible capital gains into a Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) that invests in qualified property or operating businesses within Opportunity Zones.
Why Investors Consider Opportunity Zones
How Sorren Helps

From assessing eligible gains to structuring a QOF or Qualified Opportunity Zone Business (QOZB), we guide diligence, modeling, and documentation.
We help interpret rules such as original use, substantial improvement, the 90% asset test, working capital safe harbors, and required filings.
We track key milestones, help prepare required forms, and collaborate with your legal and investment teams.
We tie recommendations to the results you care about, including after-tax return, liquidity planning, and community impact.
