## Resource

Opportunity Zones are back—and this time, they're permanent. Kathy Fettke breaks down new guidance from the U.S. Department of the Treasury and Internal Revenue Service that could reshape where real estate capital flows for the next decade. With new designations starting in 2027—and added incentives for rural markets—investment may begin shifting beyond major cities. Kathy explains what's changing, the tight 2026 nomination window, and how investors can position early to take advantage of these deals. 🏠 Want to learn more?
