House Flushes Warren's BTR Poison Pill: Big Win For OZs

May 28, 2026·46 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

The U.S. House just passed an amended version of the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, and it removed the one provision that had Opportunity Zone investors on edge: a 7-year forced-sale requirement for build-to-rent (BTR) housing that would have collided head-on with the OZ 10-year hold. In this episode of OZ NewsHour, we break down what happened, why it matters for OZ fund sponsors and investors, and what comes next as the bill heads back to the Senate. We also look ahead to how states are gearing up for the OZ 2.0 nomination window, share an update on Jimmy's forthcoming book, and take your questions live.
