Opportunity Zones

A 2017 law,
explained plainly.

Our projects focus on housing, commercial revitalization, and community-focused redevelopment. Because Antstone LLC manages what the fund acquires, the standard set during renovation is the standard maintained afterwards — which is what turns an investment into a neighborhood improvement rather than a transaction.

For first-time and experienced investors
History & purpose

Why the incentive exists.

Certain neighborhoods had been starved of investment for decades — not because they lacked potential, but because capital had learned to look elsewhere.


The 2017 legislation addressed that directly. It allows investors to redirect capital gains into long-term community investment, and in return grants significant tax advantages. The design is deliberate: the benefit grows with duration, so the money has to stay long enough to matter.


Mavinstone was already operating this way before the structure existed. The law simply gave our model a name.

The mechanism

Five steps, one long horizon.

01.

A capital gain is realized

An investor sells an asset — a business, securities, property — and faces tax on the gain.


02.

The gain is redirected

Rather than taking the proceeds, the investor directs the gain into a qualified Opportunity Zone fund such as Mavinstone.
03.

The capital is put to work

The fund acquires and revitalizes property inside federally designated zones — housing, commercial space, community-focused redevelopment.

04.

The investment is held

The incentive rewards duration. Capital stays in the community long enough for improvement to become permanent.
04.

Both sides benefit

The neighborhood gains repaired, well-managed buildings. The investor receives significant tax advantages on a long-horizon position.
Community Impact

The other side of the incentive.

Tax advantage is the mechanism. Repaired housing, active commercial streets, and stable residents are the point.

Our projects focus on housing, commercial revitalization, and community-focused redevelopment. Because Antstone LLC manages what the fund acquires, the standard set during renovation is the standard maintained afterwards — which is what turns an investment into a neighborhood improvement rather than a transaction.

Questions

Frequently asked.

Investors can redirect capital gains into long-term community investment and, in return, receive significant tax advantages. The scale of the advantage is tied to how long the investment is held.

We are a privately managed fund combining international and domestic investors, and we manage what we buy through our own property management arm, Antstone LLC — rather than handing operations to a third party once the acquisition closes.
