CMB Regional Centers (CMB) today announced that it has surpassed 7,000 EB-5 investors. Since 1997, CMB has worked with investors from more than 100 countries in their pursuit of permanent residency in the United States through EB-5.

“Seven thousand investors is a reflection of trust earned over decades, across market cycles, and amidst significant evolution of the EB-5 program,” said Noreen Hogan, President at CMB. “Pursuing EB-5 is one of the most consequential decisions someone can make, and our focus is delivering outcomes that justify the trust so many investors have placed in us.”

The announcement is the latest in a series of defining achievements for CMB, including more than 3,200 approved I-829 petitions for removal of conditions on permanent residency (the most in the EB-5 industry) and $1.5 billion repaid to investors.

Throughout its 29-year history, CMB has shaped the evolution of the regional center industry, including pioneering the now-standard EB-5 loan model. CMB was also the first regional center to mandate third-party financial audits, setting the industry standard for transparency and financial oversight for EB-5 regional center operators.

The milestone comes at a time of heightened interest in the EB-5 program as the grandfathering provision approaches its scheduled expiration in late September.

CMB Regional Centers (CMB), one of the most experienced regional center operators in the EB-5 industry, today announced that United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has approved the first I-829 petition for an investor in the CMB Group 58 – Hillwood Mansfield Retail Development EB-5 project.

Approval of an I-829 petition confirms that the investor has successfully satisfied all EB-5 program requirements, including the creation of qualifying American jobs, allowing the investor and eligible family members to receive permanent resident status in the United States.

“We know how much this step matters to our investors and their families, and it’s why we celebrate each one,” said Noreen Hogan, President at CMB. “Every I-829 approval represents the culmination of a long and complex journey, and seeing our investors reach this point is always a proud moment for our team.”

Developed in partnership with Hillwood Development Company (Hillwood), CMB Group 58 involved the development of a grocery-anchored retail shopping center in North Texas. The project is located in a Targeted Employment Area (TEA) designated as a high-unemployment area and created 261 EB-5 qualified American jobs.

Having collaborated on 45 EB-5 projects, Hillwood and CMB have built one of the strongest lender-borrower relationships in the industry, with more than $600 million in EB-5 capital repaid and 63,000+ American jobs created.
