Why are Indians selling off Indian properties and buying American real estate?

The INR has fallen by ~40% since 2014 and Indian property prices have plunged by ~30% since 2014, which means that Indian real estate purchased for $1,000,000 in 2014 is now worth ~$260,000, due to poorly planned and haphazardly implemented schemes such as RERA, Demonetization, and GST, while the USD strengthened and US property prices rose ~65% since 2009.

See https://www.livemint.com/money/personal-finance/why-indians-are-buying-properties-abroad-11574074162655.html

Industrial production contracted by 4.3%, India's economic outlook is negative, AND India's economy lost 18 MILLION jobs since 2016.

Investors who've invested in US real estate earned higher profits due to an increase in American property values coupled with a strengthening USD, while those who invested in Indian or UAE real estate incurred losses.

Yields and profits for US properties are higher as US interest and tax rates are less than 50% of Indian rates, which makes buying American properties a wise decision, as the ROE for US investments is approximately twice that of Indian properties.

Investors can get green cards for themselves & their families by investing in the US.

If you'd like to buy American properties in order to protect your assets, lower your tax bills, increase your profits, AND get green cards, please call +91-9082117462 / +1-407-413-9156

What's faster, safer, and cheaper than EB-5 visas?

The new proposed regulations that will come into effect on November 21st of this year, will essentially kill the EB-5 visa category and the regional center program.
But why will they die? The new USCIS regulations and the existing backlog make it impossible for regional centers to survive.
WHY? What are the problems that will cause the EB-5 visa program and regional centers to die?
First and foremost, the TEA amount goes up to $900,000. That in itself prices even the lower priced EB-5 visas out of the reach of more than 95% of investors who can easily get EU citizenship through Bulgaria for approximately that amount in less than the time it takes to get an EB-5 visa petition processed, and EU citizenship through Bulgaria offers investors the right to live, work, study, and do business throughout the EEA (EU, Switzerland, Norway, and Liechtenstein), AND also allows the investor to live and do business in the US under the E2 visa program.
Moreover, more than 95% of the current regional center projects will not fall within the new targeted employment area (TEA) rules that are changing with the new EB-5 visa regulations, due to which, the investment amount will be $1.8 million for most EB-5 visa investments in regional centers. Even if investors chose the safer Direct Investment route, they'd still be unable to qualify for most of the safer locations under the lower investment amount, and would need to invest $1,800,000 in a safer location in order to get a TEMPORARY green card in 30-45 months without risking a loss of capital, because investing in a genuine TEA area carries a significant risk of capital losses and operating losses.
If an investor were to consider only the safe, non-TEA locations, with a price tag of $1,800,000 for an EB-5 visa, more than 99% of investors would be unable to afford it, and will simply choose to invest $1,170,000 to get EU citizenship through Bulgaria in 2 years, instead of waiting 2.5 years to 4 years to get a TEMPORARY green card in the US through the EB-5 visa program.
Third, targeted employment areas (TEA's). New Regulations state that the USCIS will oversee the designation of targeted employment area projects, not the state the project is in. Currently if we look at the way they plan to establish the new TEA rules, more than 95% of the current projects that are selling under TEA rules will no longer be able to do so. This has to do with the word “contiguous”, as it relates to the TEA rules. With just one word change, the entire TEA system changes. Most will not qualify, and that means a few important things. To start with, Regional centers will have to redo all of their offering documents and provide an amended document to all of their prospective and current investors. Then, if an investor does not qualify under the new TEA rules, regional centers will have to resort to selling investments in their projects at $1.8 million instead of $900,000, and that WILL anyway kill their capital raise. And the change in a project’s status affect current investors if future EB-5 visa investment sourced funding dies.
Fourth, Congress has done nothing to clear up the current EB-5 visa backlog. There's no realistic possibility that Congress will address this problem and it's likely that the Regional Center program will anyway die on September 30th 2018. Nothing can be done to clear up the 17 year waiting period for Chinese investors or the 9 year waiting period for Indian investors.
EB-5 visa investors should remember that if a project falls outside of the guidelines of any of the aforementioned criteria, regional centers have to provide new documents to current and prospective investors as it is a material change that requires including a whole new section on risk factors, like the project may fall out of a TEA, and what that means to the project. Also, in offering documents, regional centers must include information that relates to the fact that a project may not fall within a targeted employment area at all, even under the new rules. 
How can EB-5 visa investors know if a project falls in a TEA? The answer to this question is actually quite simple. Less than 5% of existing projects are located in what would be a TEA under the new rules, so it may be a good idea to get a notarized affidavit from a Regional Center's CEO, CFO, and marketing agents to certify that a project will continue to qualify for the lower investment of USD 900,000 by virtue of being in a TEA, under the new EB-5 visa regulations.
With the massive backlog, coupled with the processing delays, higher investment amounts under the new EB5 visa regulations, EB-5 visa investors have to ask themselves, is it worth it to do EB-5? The answer is NO.
As it's really not worth it for investors to choose EB-5 visas, what's the alternative? If an investor has been operating a business outside the US for at least ONE year in the past 3 years, we can co-invest with them in a new business and help them get permanent green cards under the EB-1 visa category, in less than HALF the time it takes to get TEMPORARY green cards under the EB-5 visa category. Unlike the EB-5 visa investment amount of $900,000, investors can invest as little as $450,000 to get their green cards under the EB-1c visa category, and investors have a significantly lower risk of capital loss, as we anyway offer our investors a full right to audit the books of accounts. Unlike Regional centers, we offer a full fee refund guarantee if a client is denied due to our fault, and offer investors a guarantee of freedom from fraud.

EB-5 visa investors should be VERY careful about those who market EB-5 visas

Are #EB-5 visa marketers, immigration attorneys, and regional centers committing securities fraud by NOT clearly telling #EB5 visa investors of the new risks that come with investing in regional centers due to the new rules?

The new EB5 visa rules will not only increase minimum investment amounts to make EB5 visas unaffordable for most investors, they're also going to ensure that under the new TEA rules, most regional centers will fail as they'd require minimum investments of $1,800,000.

See https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/changes-eb-5-visa-regulations-cause-most-regional-centers-shaikh/ for details.

EB-1c visas are a safer, cheaper, faster, and more profitable alternative to EB5 visas, as it takes Indian investors ~9 years to get a temporary green card and ~14 years to get a permanent green card under the EB5 visa category and their money back, while Indian investors can easily get L1A visas in 3 months and permanent green cards in 4 years under the EB-1c visa category by co-investing with us in reputed franchise businesses or other qualified businesses.

We offer our investors higher returns and a full right to audit the books of accounts, AND also offer them a financial exit in 5.5 years.

Regional centers beg Congress to limit the increase in the minimum investment amount for EB-5 visas

USCIS regulations are slated to increase the minimum investment amount for EB-5 visas to USD 1.35 Million for TEAs and USD 1.8 Million for non-TEAs.

Regional Centers are begging lawmakers to limit the increase in minimum investment amount to only USD 800,000 for a TEA and USD 900,000 for other areas. More importantly, the USCIS is also planning to make dramatic changes to TEA designations that will seriously impact most regional centers.  See the IIUSA letter to Congress requesting Congress to limit the increase in minimum investment amount for EB-5 visas


It is a lot CHEAPER, Faster, and SAFER for investors to choose EB-1c visas instead of EB-5 visas for investment based immigration to the US. As it is, the backlog for Indian, Chinese, and Vietnamese EB-5 visa investors is so bad, that they now have to wait for 8.5, 16.5, and 17 years to get a temporary green card. See the latest backlog figures published by the US State Department.



EB-1c visas are safer, faster, and a lot cheaper than #EB5 visas. 

It takes Indian #EB-5 visa investors at least 8.5 years to get temporary green cards and over 13 years to get permanent green cards and their money back. Indian EB-1c visa investors get permanent green cards in 3-4 years and their money back in 5 years.

Our EB-1C program has a $0 NET COST as our 4% annual dividend ensures that investors actually end up getting PAID to get their green cards!

Our EB-1c visa investment amount of USD 440,000 + fees of $45,000 (for business owners who have at least a Bachelor's degree or higher) is a lot cheaper than EB-5 visa cost of $500,000 + legal + admin fees of $75,000.

With Permanent Resident status, investors, their spouses, and children below 21 get the right to live, work, study, or do business in the US.

EB-1c visas are safer, faster, and about 20% cheaper than #EB5 visas.

It takes Indian EB-5 visa investors at least 8.5 years to get temporary green cards and over 13 years to get permanent green cards and their money back. Indian EB-1c visa investors get permanent green cards in 3-4 years and their money back in 5 years.
