Peachtree’s FL development

gets EB-5 approval

It raised $47 million in construction financing for the project

eachtree Group recently secured

EB-5 approval from Citizenship

and Immigration Services

for Madison Bradenton, a 240-unit

multifamily development in Bradenton,

Florida. It also raised $47 million in

construction financing with a four-year

term for the project on a 10.7-acre site

in Manatee County.

The approval allows the company to

advance its EB-5 Immigrant Investor

Program, which directs foreign

investment to U.S. job creation,

Peachtree said in a statement.

“Madison Bradenton reflects the

strong demand for high-quality

multifamily housing in growing

markets,” said Adam Greene,

Peachtree’s executive vice president

of EB-5. “This project underscores

our ability to pair EB-5 financing with

secured lending, delivering attractive

opportunities for investors while

meeting critical housing needs.”

The project will include five four-

story apartment buildings with

elevators, a two-story carriage

building and a clubhouse, with

residences averaging 1,027 square

feet and featuring private patios or

balconies. The location provides access

to employment centers, healthcare

facilities and Siesta Key Beach.

Atlanta-based Peachtree is led by

Greg Friedman, managing principal and

CEO; Jatin Desai, managing principal

and CFO and Mitul Patel, principal.

This is Peachtree’s fourth approved

I-956F application, following projects

such as Home2 Suites by Hilton in

Boone, North Carolina; SpringHill

Suites by Marriott in Bryce Canyon,

Utah and TownePlace Suites by

Marriott in Palmdale, California. In

May, Peachtree secured USCIS approval

for four regional centers—South,

Northeast, Midwest and West—allowing

it to sponsor EB-5 projects in those

territories.

The EB-5 visa program allows

foreign investors to obtain a green

card by investing in a U.S. commercial

enterprise that creates

jobs, the statement said.

Investors who contribute

at least $800,000 to a

project that creates or

preserves 10 full-time

jobs for U.S. workers are

eligible for permanent

residency.

In July, Peachtree

launched the $250 million

Special Situations Fund

to invest in hotel and

commercial real estate

assets affected by capital

market illiquidity. The

fund targets properties

with value-add potential

while limiting downside

risk and is positioned to

step in where traditional

capital has pulled back,

as nearly $1 trillion in

commercial real estate

loans mature in 2025 and

hotels face refinancing and

capital needs, Peachtree

said in a statement.
