Incentive programs here

Opportunity Zone
Yes
HUBZone
Yes: qualified census tract
New Markets Tax Credit
Yes: a low-income community, in deep distress

Investments through Qualified Opportunity Funds can get federal capital-gains tax benefits. New zones take effect in 2027.

A small business with its main office in a HUBZone, and at least 35% of its employees living in one, can certify for the SBA HUBZone program’s federal contracting preferences.

Business and real estate projects here can raise New Markets Tax Credit financing through Community Development Entities (CDEs); distressed tracts are often prioritized.

Sources: SBA (HUBZones), U.S. Treasury CDFI Fund (New Markets Tax Credit tracts), NYS Department of State (Brownfield Opportunity Areas), NYS Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (National Register). Eligibility depends on the project: confirm with the program.
