Bonus Episode - The Wizard of Opportunity Zones with Josh Burrell
Opportunity Zones are relatively new.
Legislation has been around since Dec. 22nd, 2017,
But only recently it has become clear as to the direction and the reason behind it.
The Governors of each State had up to 25% of their State to designate as opportunity zones.
Although most of them are not real estate/business people,
If they were to listen to their communities,
They could understand which ones need it the most and which other communities just need that additional spark.
On today’s episode, we’re off to see the “Wizard of OZ”. Josh shares with us his knowledge about the opportunity zones and the concerns people have regarding them.
