Qualified Opportunity Fund Program
A Qualified Opportunity Fund is an investment vehicle created by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 to encourage investment and spur development in newly created Qualified Opportunity Zones (QOZs). By investing recently realized capital gains into a QOF, an investor is eligible to receive two primary tax benefits:
- Deferral of capital gains tax on the previous investment until December 31, 2026
- Complete exclusion from capital gains tax of the appreciation of the fund investment at realization, following a 10-year holding period
Grubb Properties has deep experience and a positive track record with projects in these areas. By the time the legislation was implemented, we already had four Link Apartments® sites in development or in service in QOZs.
With shovel-ready seed investments, and our longtime commitment to working with communities, our Qualified Opportunity Fund offers significant advantages to investors, businesses and neighborhoods.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY
Essential Housing
The investment strategy for Link Apartments℠ focuses on building new Essential Housing, one of the most resilient asset classes with high resident demand and very little new moderate-priced apartment inventory.
Essential Housing sits between luxury and affordable housing and focuses on the young Millennial and Gen-Z workforce struggling to afford the rising cost of housing.


Link Apartments℠
We pursue Essential Housing through our Link Apartments℠ developments where Grubb Properties has made a commitment to developing highly innovative, efficient, scalable, and branded solutions that help fill the growing essential housing gap across the United States. With a focus on location (urban, transit-oriented, close to major fixed employers) and price point with target rents affordable to residents earning 60-140% of the area median income, Link Apartments℠ offers a creative and resilient solution.
Resilient Market Strategy
Market analysis and location selection are central to our investment process and are among the fundamental inputs that drive the composition of our portfolios.
