Qualified Opportunity Zones
Do you invest in these Qualified Opportunity Zones (which can potentially be rough areas) for the tax deferral and appreciation benefits if the cash flow is not as good as another area?
I'm on the fence if this is a good strategy or not. I would love to get some thoughts on this topic.

@Jaysen Medhurst All that is true for those facts. Typically those areas in the OZ are significantly cheaper than non-OZ areas. This may be more beneficial for a OZ fund or a high net worth individual. Great thoughts on that! Thanks @Jaysen Medhurst.
