The 2017 Reform Act of 2017 has begun to gain momentum, as former United States Congressman Mark Schauer(MI-07), suggests. “Opportunity Zones created under the tax bill incentivize capital flow to businesses in low-income neighborhoods all over the nation. Investment of even a portion of unrealized capital gains will have an historic, transformative effect in distressed communities.”
The challenge lies in finding, tracking, managing, trading, and managing tax-exempt investments over the ten year period of the tax incentive.
Entrex Capital Market is a leader in state-by-state Opportunity Zone Trading solutions. This usually happens for state economic development teams. Entrex works with both local and state representatives to bring each Opportunity Zone to the forefront. Entrex can even permit investors to do tax-free 1031 exchanges, including qualified bitcoin gains, into qualified assets within each Opportunity Area through regulated market constituents.
One company benefits from the new tax “opportunities”Webco Dental is a Disabled Veteran-qualified Small Business. Webco gained significant exposure by establishing their business in the Pasco County, Florida Opportunity zone. Christopher Cooley, CEO at Webco suggests
“Being in an Opportunity Zone and being a Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, or SDVOSB, allows us to help investors support our veterans, while focusing on the economic and employment growth our communities need – all on a potentially tax-free income and capital gain basis.”
Entrex allows investors to be exposed by offering the opportunity to not only buy equity and debt of companies but also the possibility of liquidity. “It’s like the eBay or real estate’s MLS for private companies,”Craig Rutkai, a Florida entrepreneur, says so.
Entrex offers alternative investors, including real estate, gold and other commodities, Opportunity Zones and consumer debt. This is similar to how they handled over 200 transactions for companies last year – each one reviewed by regulators. Potentially, there are government-backed aircraft leases.
Stephen H. Watkins (CEO of Entrex) suggests: “Back in 2015, when our Broker/Dealer managed the Overstock.com TIGRcub Bond – we helped manage the first security to ever trade on the Blockchain. Now every trade and interest payment we service can be pushed out.”
“It is an exciting time and the beginning of the democratization of private companies.”
