WE KNOW THE JOURNEY

Real Experience. Real Understanding.

Buying property in another country brings special questions about ownership, financing, contracts, taxes, insurance, family plans, and making important decisions when you cannot be there in person.

As immigrants ourselves, we understand why clear guidance and trustworthy professionals matter. We combine local real estate expertise with a personal commitment to helping international families and investors find the right property for their goals—not simply the first available listing.

When appropriate, we can coordinate introductions to independent immigration and real estate attorneys, paralegals, accountants and other specialists. Each professional supplies their own engagement terms and advice.

Investment-property ownership and purchasing an operating business are different transactions. Neither automatically satisfies EB-5 immigration requirements.

USCIS EB-5 IMMIGRANT INVESTOR PROGRAM

Explore EB-5—Carefully, With Qualified Counsel.

EB-5 is a U.S. immigrant-investor classification. Qualifying investments generally require capital placed at risk in an eligible new commercial enterprise and creation of at least ten qualifying full-time jobs. Regional-center and direct investment structures have different evidence and procedural requirements.

$800,000Current reduced investment threshold for qualifying targeted employment area or designated infrastructure investments, subject to USCIS adjustments.
$1,050,000Current standard minimum investment threshold for other qualifying cases; legal, filing and administrative costs can be additional.
10 JobsGeneral EB-5 requirement to create or preserve ten qualifying full-time U.S. jobs under the applicable rules.

Important: Buying a condominium, home, land parcel or ordinary investment property does not grant a visa, permanent residence or citizenship. EB-5 capital may be lost; a petition can be denied, and neither job creation nor immigration outcomes are guaranteed. Thresholds must be rechecked before investing.

01Immigration Eligibility

Independent immigration counsel assesses your family, lawful funds, timeline and immigration options.

02Project & Structure

Evaluate direct or regional-center investments, USCIS filings, status and eligibility documents.

03Independent Due Diligence

Review offering memoranda, risks, fees, capital sources, job-creation forecasts and securities requirements.

04Investment & Petition

Transfer qualifying capital and file the applicable petition, such as I-526 or I-526E, through counsel.

05Visa / Residency

Consular processing or adjustment of status, where eligible, depends on visa availability and government decisions.

06Conditions & Future

Eligible conditional residents may pursue I-829 removal of conditions. Naturalization is separate.

EB-5 Project Introductions

We can help facilitate a preliminary discussion with qualified independent immigration, securities and project professionals. No EB-5 project is offered, endorsed, or represented on this website at present. Any future opportunity requires documented eligibility and independent review.

INTERNATIONAL BUYER CHECKLIST

What You Should Verify Before Buying in the United States.

A South Florida purchase involves more than agreeing to a price. Qualified independent advisors can help you understand these important cross-border considerations.

Foreign Ownership & Eligibility

Florida rules may restrict certain foreign purchasers or locations. An attorney must evaluate the actual buyer, country-related restrictions, property and any filing requirements.

Ownership & Estate Planning

Compare personal versus entity ownership with U.S. and home-country tax/legal advisors. Assess estate and succession risks before choosing an entity.

U.S. Taxes and FIRPTA

Confirm local property taxes, rental-income obligations and rules for foreign sellers. FIRPTA can require buyer withholding when the seller is a foreign person; exceptions vary.

Money Transfers & Financing

Plan currency exchange, funds documentation, bank compliance, escrow instructions and any foreign-national financing conditions; never wire funds to an unverified account.

Condo & Waterfront Risks

Verify association reserves, assessments, insurance, flood/wind exposure, lease limits, inspections and future operating costs before closing.

Immigration Is Separate

EB-5, E-2 and other pathways have distinct requirements. A residence, land purchase or passive investment alone does not grant a green card or visa.

Use independent professionals and authoritative sources: IRS FIRPTA guidance · USCIS EB-5 guidance . Country-specific restrictions and ownership law must be reviewed for each transaction.
QUESTIONS INTERNATIONAL CLIENTS OFTEN ASK

Clarity Before Commitment.

Can a foreign national purchase property in Florida?

Many foreign buyers can purchase, but Florida has laws affecting some foreign purchasers and certain locations, and federal reporting requirements may apply. Engage qualified counsel to assess nationality, location, property type, ownership structure and any restrictions before contracting.

Does buying a U.S. property qualify for a green card?

No. Buying a home, rental or commercial property does not by itself confer immigration status. Immigration eligibility must be independently evaluated.

Can we buy property while outside the United States?

Remote touring, electronic communication and some closing arrangements may be available, but identity checks, banking, lender requirements and signing procedures depend on the transaction.

What if we want a property to rent part of the year?

Check local ordinances, HOA/condo rental restrictions, insurance, management, occupancy rules and tax obligations. Estimated rental income must be independently tested.

Can the team help with an operating business purchase?

We can discuss licensed business-brokerage representation through the brokerage, subject to appropriate transaction terms and independent legal/accounting review. See our Sell Your Business page.
