My understanding is that you can sell assets and defer capital gaines taxes in an opportunity zone until the property is sold.

And over time, as those assets to make our product we sell had a fixed price, the dollar does not sit fixed, our cost of product increases meaning increased cash-flow.

At one point I was told I could obtain funding (non-conforming was the term that was used) with 12 months of bank statements.My question is what would make me more appealing to a lender; should I continue with 1099 work or go to W2??

With hardwork and ceasing opportunities we've managed to be part of this major asset and making it even better.

Unless your team can put in 10% of the total money raised, you will have trouble obtaining financing. 

we do have to remember and I know its 10 years ago and many on this site are post GFC investor and know no better.. but were do you think all these deals came from... back in 2010 to 2014  it was not from well performing assets it was from stressed and failed owners. 

This also allows for property owners to more easily write-off assets that get damaged/destroyed as the value of these assets is determined as part of the study.

Remember, someone else is paying off a chunk of that asset.
