EB-5 Project Update: CMB Regional Centers Repayment of Yet Another LoanFebruary 24, 2019
Current EB-5 Project Information
CMB is proud to announce the repayment of its CMB Export Infrastructure Investment Group XIII, LP (“Group XIII”) EB-5 investment loan. Group XIII loaned $20 million to assist in financing the development and construction of two Hillwood Development Company projects. The projects consisted of the development and construction of two industrial/logistics facilities in San Bernardino County, California with a total cost of $76 million.
The first facility, Southgate Building 4, finalized construction during 3rd quarter of 2013 and received its certificate of occupancy on August 7, 2013. Southgate Building 4 served as an expansion of Southgate Building 3, the first Amazon fulfillment center to commence operations in the state of California. Both buildings are currently under lease by Amazon and are home to over 2,000 full-time employees.
The second industrial facility, Chino Commerce Center, finalized construction during 1st quarter of 2014 and received its certificate of occupancy on March 21, 2014. Chino Commerce Center was later sold to an industrial/logistics REIT, Industrial Income Trust.
Collectively, the Group XIII Partnership created 447 indirect and induced jobs (based on actual project expenditures) from construction alone, or 11.2 jobs per investor, meeting and exceeding the job creation requirement of each Group XIII investor. Most importantly, investors in Group XIII have begun receiving approvals of their I-829 petitions.
Group XIII was CMB’s third EB-5 partnership featuring a Hillwood affiliate serving as borrower. Hillwood has now repaid each of these first three partnerships in full. CMB Infrastructure Investment Group VIII, LP and CMB Export Infrastructure Investment Group XII, LP have also received approvals at both the I-526 and I-829 stage and have begun returning capital to eligible investors.
