Miami is a city in constant growth, especially in the real estate sector. In this context, the EB-5 program is presented as an opportunity for foreign investors to access immigration benefits while being part of innovative real estate developments.
Among these developments, Smart Brickell is an emblematic project that combines luxury design and a privileged location with facilities for those seeking to become U.S. residents through the EB-5 program.
The EB-5 program, a pathway to residency
The EB-5 Program is a U.S. government initiative that allows investors from other countries to obtain permanent residency (Green Card) for themselves and their immediate family members.
To be part of the program, investors must make an investment that contributes to economic development and job creation in the region where they invest.
Those who wish to qualify must make an investment ranging from $900,000 (in areas of rural employment or high unemployment), or $1.8 million in areas with lower unemployment or higher commercial and industrial activity. In addition, this investment must be in projects that generate at least 10 permanent jobs for U.S. workers.
Smart Brickell and the EB-5 program
Smart Brickell is one of the developments carried out by Habitat Group, established in Brickell, Miami’s financial district, an area that is being revalued by construction and urban planning projects that manage to increase its appreciation potential.
This development is also an EB-5 approved project, as its design meets both the employment generation requirements and the investment criteria required by this program.
Employment generation at Smart Brickell takes place throughout the project, from the hiring of builders to erect the missing towers, to the selection of managers and maintenance and security professionals for the day-to-day operations of the complex.
This ongoing job creation supports the project’s viability under the EB-5 program, assuring participating investors that the program’s requirements will be met.
Profitability Benefits
By investing in Smart Brickell, investors acquire a property in one of the most sought-after areas of Miami, participating in a project that allows them to achieve investment and residential objectives simultaneously.
In addition, the properties in Smart Brickell are designed to offer a high return on investment for their owners, who can manage the rental of the units throughout the year, taking into account the influx of tourists that arrive in Miami month after month.
Thus, investors who opt for Smart Brickell will be able to access the program and its residential benefits, while promoting local and personal economic development.
How to invest in Smart Brickell?
The investment process begins with a detailed consultation with migration and EB-5 experts to assess the project’s eligibility and understand the program’s conditions.
Once Smart Brickell is selected for investment, Habitat Group and its team of investment professionals provide support to investors at every stage of the EB-5 program, verifying the preparation and submission of documentation at each stage of the application process.
In addition, by choosing Habitat Group, investors do not incur costs associated with administrative handling during the program, as well as filing documents with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
With Miami’s steady growth and expanding infrastructure, properties in Smart Brickell are bound to appreciate, increasing long-term profitability for investors. In addition, obtaining a Green Card through the EB-5 program opens doors for more opportunities in the U.S., both personal and professional.
