Developing housing is already a complex equation, and tapping EB-5 capital adds a whole other layer of strategy.
In this episode of BuzzHouse, Don Bernards and Garrick Gibson are joined by their Baker Tilly colleagues Warren Oakes and Jillian O’Brien, two professionals with deep experience in EB-5 project structuring, compliance and advisory services. The team explains what EB-5 is, how it applies to multifamily housing, the steps developers need to take if they’re considering this type of capital and how to evaluate if EB-5 is a good fit for your housing project.
