A different approach to EB-5: investor-owned
When Is My Capital Targeted for Return? What If My Petition Is Denied?
19 minutes. Direct answers from the people responsible for the project.
EB5 Energy investors own the fund that holds the controlling interest in the operating company, rather than lending their capital to a developer who owns the project. The managing partner, chief executive, geologist and drilling operator explain what that changes:
- Capital repayment. How repayment comes from production revenue, and the 36-month repayment target for each investor class.
- Immigration risk. What happens to your capital if USCIS denies your I-526E petition.
- The acreage. Six wells reached the Mississippi Lime here decades ago and five are still producing. What that record does and does not tell you.
