许多外国投资者已考虑在海外投资以实现投资组合多元化。投资美国商业房地产基金可能是一个特别有吸引力的选择。除了将一些资产转移到稳定的美元计价资产外，商业房地产资产组合的回报波动性应低于单一住宅或单一资产商业房地产交易。
投资商业房地产债务涉及向业主或开发商提供贷款。该策略带来了几个关键好处：
股权投资的吸引力涉及 拥有房产本身的股份。以下是股权投资的显著优势：
精明的投资者可以通过分散商业房地产的债务和股权投资来进一步优化其投资组合。这种混合方法平衡了债务投资的稳定收入与股权投资获得更高回报的潜力。在经济不确定时期，它尤其具有吸引力，可以对冲市场波动，为财富创造提供了多种途径。
美国的私募股权房地产基金为投资者提供了以两种方式进行分散投资的机会。首先，通过分散普通公开交易的债务和股权证券，投资者可以获得与整个股票市场无关的回报。其次，通过投资具有专业管理能力的基金，投资者可以获得比单一资产投资波动性更小的回报，同时受益于管理团队的专业知识和经验。
在寻求与基金经理一起投资时，请考虑整个基金的往绩以及团队中个别高管的经验。在尽职调查中，了解经理的投资流程：他们如何识别、承保、完成和管理个人交易？根据他们的经验，他们是否有意义的重点？他们建立了成功的往绩记录吗？
回答这些问题将使您走上寻找有动力保护和增加投资的信誉良好的基金经理的道路。海外投资并不容易，但是有了正确的知识和合作伙伴，这可能是一次非常有意义的经历。

ATLANTA (April 2025) – Peachtree Group (“Peachtree”) has successfully secured U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) approval for four regional centers: Peachtree South Regional Center, Peachtree Northeast Regional Center, Peachtree Midwest Regional Center and Peachtree West Regional Center. These approvals allow Peachtree to independently structure and sponsor EB-5 projects within the designated territories, streamlining the investment process and enhancing efficiency in bringing deals to market.
The approved regional centers cover the continental U.S., giving Peachtree a national footprint to expand its EB-5 program. With these approvals, the firm plans to scale its EB-5 efforts, increase deal volume and seamlessly integrate EB-5 capital into its broader investment strategy.
Peachtree launched its EB-5 program in 2023 with the appointment of Adam Greene as executive vice president. Since then, the program has received three I-956F approvals for hotel developments, including Home2 Suites by Hilton in Boone, N.C.; TownePlace Suites by Marriott in Palmdale, CA.; and SpringHill Suites by Marriott in Bryce Canyon City, Utah.
The Regional Center approvals, granted by USCIS, represents a critical milestone in facilitating EB-5 investment opportunities. Previously, Peachtree relied on third-party regional centers, which added complexity and extended processing times. Now, with its own approved regional centers, the firm can directly manage and file EB-5 investments, significantly reducing timelines and enhancing control over its platform.
“These approvals mark a major milestone for Peachtree, solidifying our ability to independently execute EB-5 transactions and accelerate our investment initiatives,” Greene said. “With this expanded capacity, we can efficiently sponsor and structure projects, further driving economic development and job creation across the country.”
Peachtree has built a strong reputation in commercial real estate investment, and the newly established regional centers align with its long-term vision of diversifying and optimizing its capital sources.
"Implementing an EB-5 program is an excellent way to access low-cost capital, diversify our funding sources and invest in job-creating projects across the country," said Greg Friedman, Peachtree's CEO and managing principal.
The EB-5 visa program allows foreign investors to obtain a green card in exchange for making a significant investment in a new commercial enterprise that creates jobs in the U.S. Under the program, foreign nationals who invest a minimum of $800,000 in a U.S.-based project that creates or preserves at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers are eligible to apply for permanent residency in the U.S.
"Looking ahead, we are committed to expanding our EB-5 footprint by increasing the number of qualifying projects and deepening our engagement with EB-5 investors. With a proven investment track record, national reach and execution expertise, Peachtree is well-positioned to leverage these approvals and solidify its leadership in the EB-5 investment sector," Greene added.

ATLANTA (April 28, 2024) – Peachtree Group("Peachtree") has received its I-956F approval from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the government agency that oversees the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program, for the currently under construction SpringHill Suites by Marriott in Bryce Canyon, Utah.
The I-956F approval, granted by USCIS, marks a crucial step in Peachtree’s ongoing efforts to facilitate investment opportunities through the EB-5 program, which is designed to promote economic growth and job creation in the U.S.
“Securing USCIS approval for this project marks an important milestone,” said Adam Greene, executive vice president of EB-5 at Peachtree. “It highlights our continued focus on structuring and originating capital for high-quality developments that generate economic impact and long-term value for investors and communities.”
Peachtree originated $16.95 million in floating-rate construction financing over a three-year term for the development of a 127-room SpringHill Suites in Bryce Canyon, Utah. The hotel will be located about 10 minutes from Bryce Canyon National Park, one of the most iconic natural attractions in the United States. Known for its dramatic geological formations, the park draws more than 2 million visitors annually. The hotel is expected to be completed by mid-2025.
This is the third hotel development for which Peachtree has received I-956F approval, having previously secured it for its Home2 Suites by Hilton development in Boone, N.C.,and TownePlace Suites by Marriott in Palmdale, Calif.
“With strong travel demand, limited new supply and favorable market tail winds, well-located, newly developed assets are positioned to out perform their competitive set,” said Greene. “Construction is already underway, reducing project risk, and the firm has retained an equity stake aligned with our EB-5 investors — reinforcing our commitment and directly tying our success to theirs.”
Peachtree launched its EB-5 program in 2023 as a key financing tool to support job-creating projects nationwide. The firm remains committed to delivering high-quality investment and development opportunities through its expanding portfolio of EB-5 projects.
The EB-5 visa program allows foreign investors to obtain a green card in exchange for making a significant investment in a new commercial enterprise that creates jobs in the U.S. Under the program, foreign nationals who invest a minimum of $800,000 in a U.S.-based project that creates or preserves at least 10 full-time jobs for U.S. workers are eligible to apply for permanent residency.

For current and prospective U.S.immigrants, the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA) changed the game. This legislation has transformed the way investors can navigate the process of potentially obtaining a U.S. green card, primarily through EB-5 concurrent adjustment of status filing. Concurrent filing means investors now have the ability to file their I-526E (EB-5 Immigrant Petition) and I-485 (Application to Adjust Status) forms at the same time.This makes the EB-5 program more accessible than ever for those who are already in the U.S. In this article, we’ll explain the meaning of concurrent filing, how the process works, and the potential benefits investors can enjoy.
So, what does EB-5 concurrent filing mean? And how might it impact you as an investor? The short answer is that prior to the legislation that was passed in March of 2022, EB-5 investors had to wait for their Form I-526 (pre-RIA) to be approved before filing Form I-485 to adjust their status to that of a lawful permanent resident. Often, this resulted in lengthy wait times, especially for individuals already residing in the United States under valid non immigrant visas like H-1B, E2 or F-1. Now, the ability to concurrently file I-526E (postRIA) and I-485 forms has radically changed this process.
Through concurrent filing, prospective investors can potentially bypass this waiting period and potentially obtain their conditional green card faster. To qualify for concurrent filing, investors must meet a couple of key requirements:
· They must already be physically present in the U.S. under a valid nonimmigrant visa status.
· A visa number must be immediately available for their category, which can be confirmed by checking the U.S. Department of State’s Visa Bulletin.
This approach can save time and also allow investors to apply for Employment Authorization Documents (EAD) and Advance Parole (travel authorization) while their applications are pending. As a result, investors can continue working, studying, or managing businesses in the U.S. without disruptions, making concurrent filing a pivotal advancement for the EB-5program. So, how does the process work?
EB-5 concurrent filing allows investors a different approach to their immigration journey. Understanding the steps is crucial to ensuring an efficient process where requirements are met.
The process for concurrent filing begins with the submission of an I-526E form. This form demonstrates the investor’s commitment to a qualifying EB-5 project and compliance with program regulations. Key documents include proof of the investment amount, evidence of lawful source of funds, and details about the job creation potential of the project.
You’ll also want to keep in mind the fees that come with filing an I-526E form. In 2025 the filing fee is about $12,160.
While submitting your I-526E, you’ll want to concurrently file your I-485 form, too. Concurrent filing means you can submit your application to adjust your status at the same time as your I-526E form. Required documentation includes proof of lawful entry, evidence of valid nonimmigrant status, and supporting materials for eligibility, such as medical examination results. One potential supporting form you may want to consider is an I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record.
In 2025, the I-485 form has a filing fee of $1,440 and a biometrics fee of $85.
When you concurrently file your I-485 and I-526E forms, you may at the same time file forms for permission to work and permission to travel—called an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) or advance parole. These forms, if approved, enable the investor to work and travel with unlimited entry in and out of the U.S. while their green card application is pending, essentially granting the same benefits as a green card. Investors typically don’t have to wait too long for this, as approval tends to be granted within three months of filing.
By allowing investors to simultaneously submit key immigration forms, concurrent filing has meant a lot to EB-5investors. From work and travel authorization to a streamlined process, concurrent filing presents several benefits:
