EB5AN

What EB5AN does

EB5AN, LLC is a privately held, USCIS-authorized EB-5 regional center operator, consulting firm, and investment fund manager founded in 2013 by Sam Silverman and Mike Schoenfeld, both former Boston Consulting Group consultants and Forbes 30 Under 30 honorees. The firm operates 10+ USCIS-authorized regional centers covering 48+ states, Puerto Rico, and Washington D.C., sponsoring EB-5 investment funds (loan and equity structures) tied to U.S. real estate development projects that satisfy the program's job-creation and at-risk-capital requirements. As of March 2025, EB5AN had sponsored 2,700+ investors from 70+ countries representing $1B+ in deployed capital, $7B+ in assets under development, and 15,000+ EB-5-eligible jobs created since the 2022 Reform and Integrity Act. Its product portfolio spans rural and urban targeted employment area (TEA) projects — including senior loans (Currahee Club, Hard Rock Pointe Vista, Grand Park), equity investments (Lakeview Landing, Brandon Multifamily), and loan investments (Spring Haven, Rocky River, Simply Shenandoah, Twin Lakes Georgia, Tamarack Resort) — developed with elite partners such as The Kolter Group ($37B+ track record), Hard Rock International, Fischer Companies, and Carson Group. EB5AN reports a 100% USCIS project approval rate across 31 Form I-956F exemplar approvals and 800+ I-526E investor approvals, with the fastest I-956F processed in 1.6 months and fastest I-526E in 53 days.

EB5AN generates revenue through regional center management fees, project-level administrative fees, and carried interest on sponsored EB-5 investment funds, with minimum investment thresholds set by USCIS program requirements ($800,000 for rural/high-unemployment TEAs; $1,050,000 for non-TEAs) rather than by the firm. Its go-to-market is an enterprise field-sales motion targeting high-net-worth foreign investors ($800K+ investable capital) seeking U.S. permanent residency, executed through direct consultations supported by international offices in 8 countries (US, India, Brazil, Vietnam, UAE, South Africa, Mexico, China) and a referral network of immigration attorneys including Darren Silver, Kate Kalmykov, and Anahita George. The technology stack is composed entirely of third-party integrations — Juniper Square for the investor portal, PRXY Fund Services for real-time project expenditure tracking, and Lawfully for USCIS case-status monitoring — with no proprietary platform. The firm has recently expanded beyond pure fund management into direct real-estate stewardship, exemplified by its May 2026 acquisition of the Wohali Utah golf resort through a $65M credit bid at a federal bankruptcy auction, with Troon engaged for golf-course operations.

Scale indicators10 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• NES Financial: Fund administration and accounting technology provider that serves many EB-5 regional centers and competes for the same fund-services stack that EB5AN addresses via PRXY. Overlap is in fund administration infrastructure rather than primary investor origination.

Others

• Greystar Real Estate Partners: Largest U.S. multifamily property manager and a known EB5AN development and operations partner. While not a direct competitor, Greystar represents the type of institutional real estate operator that could vertically integrate EB-5 sponsorship over time, posing a long-term competitive threat.

Direct peers

• Civitas Capital Group: EB-5 regional center operator and investment manager focused on multifamily and mixed-use real estate development for foreign investors. Overlaps with EB5AN's product categories (multifamily, urban TEA) and investor base.
• CanAm Enterprises: One of the largest EB-5 regional center operators in the United States, with a comparable multi-project, multi-fund model and a similar target market of high-net-worth foreign investors pursuing U.S. permanent residency. Directly competes with EB5AN for institutional-quality real estate project sponsorship and global investor relationships.
• CMB Regional Centers: Established EB-5 regional center operator that sponsors infrastructure and real estate projects for foreign investors seeking U.S. Green Cards. Competes head-to-head with EB5AN for project origination, USCIS approvals, and global high-net-worth investor sourcing.
• Pine State Regional Center: Multi-state USCIS-authorized EB-5 regional center operator focused on commercial real estate and infrastructure projects. Comparable operating model to EB5AN's multi-state regional center footprint.
• Golden Gate Global: EB-5 regional center operator sponsoring multifamily and hospitality real estate projects for foreign investors seeking U.S. residency. Comparable in scale, product mix, and target HNW foreign investor base to EB5AN.
• Behring (formerly EB5Investors.com): Vertically integrated EB-5 platform combining regional center operations, project sponsorship, and an investor-media/lead-generation arm. Directly comparable to EB5AN as a brand-led EB-5 sponsor targeting global HNW investors.
• American Life (Regional Center): Long-standing EB-5 regional center operator serving Korean and broader Asian high-net-worth investor markets. Competes with EB5AN's international investor sourcing channels in overlapping Asian geographies.

Regional players

• AIIM Capital: EB-5 regional center operator focused on Latin American and select U.S. markets. Partially comparable to EB5AN's international investor sourcing motion, particularly in Brazil and Mexico.
