EB-5 Green Card: Tailor-made to focus on foreigners seeking US permanent residency

The EB-5 visa program has demonstrated a miraculous recovery following the pandemic. This has propelled industry experts and contributors to take a bullish approach, primarily because of the increase in foreign investors' contributions and the renewed interest and demands from American developers seeking alternative funding in an otherwise cash-stripped market.

The EB-5 visa program, tailor-made to focus on foreign nationals seeking US permanent residency or green card in exchange for investment in the country, has established itself as an economic stimulus. The EB-5 requires an investment of at least $800,000, focused on creating and sustaining at least 10 full-time jobs for two years, leading to rapid economic growth, especially in high-unemployment areas.

Historically, the program has also been a huge alternative to the H-1B visa, providing 10,000 visas annually on average and a lucrative return on investment (ROI) to investors.

As per the EB-5 trade association Invest in the USA (IIUSA), at least $834 million was invested in the first two quarters of 2023. The fund was used to develop commercial real estate and infrastructure projects.
However, like all avenues of investment, EB-5 real estate investments come with their own risks and rewards, propelling investors to design innovative strategies to safeguard their interests.

A successful EB-5 real estate investment offers endless possibilities, but a lack of strategies can have dire consequences. Investors must maintain a strategic balance between risk and reward, which calls for effective strategies to garner a successful EB-5 real estate investment.

Risks associated with EB-5 real estate investments

It remains of paramount importance to understand the fundamental risks associated with EB-5 real estate investment. Market shifts, regulatory switches, and project-oriented difficulties can turn out to be detrimental to a successful investment. This is why an extensive risk assessment remains crucial, diminishing potential drawbacks.

As per the industry reports, a considerable amount of EB-5 visas are granted to regional center projects every year. This means investors must compare the success rates of projects in regional centers and direct investments. According to US Citizenship and Immigration Services, 87% of the I-526 applications, the beginning of the EB-5 process, are approved.
