In a statement obtained by Businessday in Lagos on Monday, Ruth Obih, CEO, 3Invest, informed that Houston EB5 would be visiting Nigeria in the next couple of days for an investor open house and launch of its Nigerian office at Lagos Cowork.
Obih added that at the September 26, 2019, at a closed event in Ikoyi, Lagos, Acho Azuike, managing director of Houston EB5, would be presenting an overview of the EB-5 visa programme and why the time to invest.
“The Houston EB5 office is the only regional centre led by a team with personal and professional interests in Nigeria. Houston EB5 has worked with Nigerian investors since 2010 and has successfully completed multiple projects,” the 3Inest boss said.
Founded in 2010, the programme was established to help international investors gain permanent United States residency in return for making a qualified real estate investment. Certified by United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) as an EB-5 Regional Center, Houston EB-5 has more than 25 years of real estate experience.
Achuike’s presentation will include investment opportunity in The Allen project which is a high-end, multiuse development in Houston, Texas that includes the luxury brand, Thompson Hotel, The Residences, a lifestyle pavilion, including one of the nation’s most exclusive fitness clubs, luxury retail spaces, and world-class office buildings.
The landmark development, overlooking Buffalo Bayou Park, will stand as a crossroad between downtown, the Galleria Uptown area, Midtown and the Texas Medical Center offering the best of the city and outdoor lifestyle.
“The Allen will truly be a landmark project –redefining luxury living, working and playing at the middle meeting point between the central business district and the Galleria,” said Acho Azuike, COO and managing director of Houston EB5.
Azuike said The Allen fits perfectly with 3Invest’s profile for high-quality EB5 investment funding. Like previous Houston EB5 projects, The Allen has received great support from the City of Houston. A Targeted Employment Area (TEA) designation has been assigned to the project, lowering the minimum investment amount from $1 million to $500,000.
“Through the marketing of previous projects and local partners like 3Invest, Houston EB5 has established strong investor pipelines in Latin America, Africa, and Asia helping to assure complete capitalization of projects,” said Azuike.
“Houston EB5 has a proven success rate of Green Card approvals and return of capital to all its investors,” said Roberto Contreras, President & CEO, Houston EB5. “We consistently deliver world-class investment projects and demonstrate long-term financial strength, as we help investors achieve their business and residency goals.”
Time is of essence. The US government has issued a new rule, raising the level of investment effective November 21, 2019. This new regulation will change the EB- 5 programme significantly. One of the major changes to the EB-5 programme in the final rule is the drastic increase in the investment levels.
