GCFID reviews an array of investment opportunities nationally with the primary focus within the state of Georgia. Approved for the entire state, GCFID prefers opportunities with strong demand drivers and high barriers to new supply. GCFID actively pursues and welcomes new opportunties for review and consideration. All proposals will be thoroughly reviewed and approved based on diligent underwriting policies.
Project Underwriting: Projects must be delivered within the required two year timeline as described by the USCIS guidelines. Project proposals must be supported by a summary business plan with corresponding financials that demostrate the projects ability to provide highly attractive risk-adjusted returns. GCFID will review the project location to confirm that it falls within a Targeted Employment Area and may request the project sponsor to commission an Employment Impact Study.
GCFID will earn a participating interest in each project. The actual amount varies from project to project and is based on several factors which are determined through the underwriting process. For each project, GCFID will create a Single Purpose Entity ("SPE") that controls the participating interest of GCFID as the General Partner ("GP"). The EB-5 investors participate in the partnership as Limited Partners ("LP").
