OZ 2.0

The rules are changing.
Know how to utilize them.

The Opportunity Zone program was rewritten in July 2025 under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Every major provision shifted. Model your deal with the new rules, not the old assumptions.

Signed into law July 4, 2025 — OBBBA §70421

Your Tax Profile

Understand your situation.
Same deal. Different math.

Three investors — same equity check, same property, same hold period, but the OZ tax savings vary by six figures. Most OZ analysis stops at the project level. Auris takes it to the LP level.

State tax is based on the investor’s state of residence, not where the deal is located. Some states do not conform to the federal OZ exclusion: California, Mississippi, Massachusetts, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania may still tax gains at the state level after a 10-year hold.

Methodology

Built to withstand
investor scrutiny.

§1400Z-2
Built on the statute
Every calculation references IRC §1400Z-2 as amended by OBBBA §70421. OZ 1.0 and OZ 2.0 rules modeled side‑by‑side — rolling deferral, 5‑year step‑up, 10‑year exclusion, 30‑year cap.
50 + DC
State tax conformity
LP‑level tax profiles with state‑specific capital gains rates and OZ conformity mapping. Non‑conforming states like California flagged automatically — same deal, different math.
7 Checks
Automated compliance
OZ designation, business type, substantial improvement, 10‑year hold, 180‑day window, 90% asset test, and original use — validated automatically with pass/fail status and remediation guidance.
§1250
Recapture never excluded
Depreciation recapture split at 25% — never hand‑waved out of the 10‑year exclusion. MACRS schedules (39yr, 15yr, 7yr) run the full hold. The number you see is the number you defend.
0.00%
IRR tolerance on real deals
Validated against real LP pro formas with month‑by‑month cash flow data. Pre‑tax IRR matches to the basis point. OZ savings match to the penny. Formula‑traced, not estimated.
4 Scenarios
Full wealth projection
Pay & Hold, Exit Now, Exit & Re‑Invest OZ 2.0, and OZ 2.0 Transition — each projected at 5, 10, 15, and 20‑year horizons with after‑tax net wealth and automatic recommendation.
