The Financial plumbing of a typical EB-5: An Immigrant invests in a “EB-5 Regional economic development center” or “Red”. The Red pools many EB-5 investors together and then makes real estate, or similar, development loans. This works well for the EB-5 immigrant as the loans have a maturity date so in theory you get your money back after a set period of time. EB-5 investments must be equity (no fixed period).
From what I’ve heard, most immigrants break-even or lose a bit on their investment after brokers fees and such.
