CMB Regional Centers Marks 3,000th Investor with Return of Capital

CMB Regional Centers Marks 3,000th Investor with Return of Capital

CMB Regional Centers (CMB), one of the most experienced regional center operators in the EB-5 industry, today announced that more than 3,000 investors have received a return of capital through CMB-administered EB-5 partnerships.

“When an investor chooses to participate in a CMB partnership, they’re investing their family’s future with us. We take that responsibility seriously,” said Noreen Hogan, President at CMB. “Surpassing 3,000 investors with a return of capital is more than just a milestone. It’s a reflection of nearly three decades of conservative project selection, rigorous underwriting standards, and commitment.”

CMB partnerships have laid the foundation for more than 6,700 families to achieve permanent residency in the United States.

“Over the past decade of collaboration, I have been deeply impressed by [CMB’s] diligence, professionalism, and outstanding reputation,” said a CMB Group 35 investor who recently received a return of capital. “In the EB-5 sector, I firmly believe that CMB is not only the most exceptional regional center, but also the most trustworthy. Without question.”

CMB was founded in 1997 and initially focused on the revitalization of communities in California impacted by Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC). The earliest CMB projects notably catalyzed the transformation of the former McClellan Air Force Base in Sacramento, and Norton Air Force Base, in San Bernardino.

As a pioneer in the industry, CMB has leveraged its innovative loan model and job creation methodology (both have since become industry-standards) to power the development of a spectrum of EB-5 projects across a range of asset classes: from logistics to multi-family to mixed-use.

CMB Regional Centers (CMB), one of the most experienced regional center operators in the EB-5 industry, today announced its latest EB-5 offering, Group 97 – Stillwater Travis South has received approval of Form I-956F from United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

“We are thrilled to introduce another outstanding EB-5 project with our long-time partners at Stillwater,” said Noreen Hogan, President at CMB. “Our 100% project-approval rate by USCIS is powered by our commitment to collaborate with only the strongest, most consistent developer partners. Stillwater’s track record in Texas and success in the EB-5 space made them the ideal choice for our latest offering.”

An industrial logistics development, Group 97 will be located near Austin, Texas, one of the fastest-growing industrial markets in the United States.

CMB Group 97 will provide up to $15.2 million in EB-5 investment capital to support the development of Phase 1 of the Travis South Industrial Park.

    The Group 97 Project

    A Logistics Facility located within a Qualified Targeted Employment Area (TEA)

    The Project

    The Stillwater Travis South Industrial Project will consist of a unique, industrial logistics development opportunity in Austin, Texas on approximately 58 acres at the southwest corner 45 Toll Road and I-35 on the south side of Austin. The site is bordered by Old San Antonio Road to the east and Onion Creek to the west.

    Stillwater Travis South

    The Project site is located in the thriving South Austin Logistics Submarket and will be well-positioned with direct access to the I-35 and 45 Toll Road ground transportation corridors. Due to more affordable housing in the Kyle and Buda, TX areas, a high concentration of the labor force for industrial properties live close by. HPI Commercial Real Estate Services has been engaged to market the industrial spaces to potential tenants; HPI is not affiliated with the Partnership.

    The Austin industrial market had a positive absorption of 2.5 million SF in Q4 2024, with vacancy rates dropping to 12.4%, a quarter-over-quarter decrease of 505 bps. Q4 2024 marks the 42nd consecutive quarter for positive net demand with the Austin industrial market, with the Sounh and Hays County submarkets leasing over 170,000 SF during Q4.

    Group 97 EB-5 funds will be utilized in all aspects of the development and construction activities of the Project. This may include, but is not limited to site demolition and abatement, onsite and offsite development, grading, landscaping, drainage systems, both horizontal and vertical infrastructure, and certain interior buildout of the Project.
