EB5 Capital Repays JF38 Project Ahead of Schedule: A Milestone Confirming its Investment Strategy

Notícias Portugal8 September 2026 at 12:05

EB5 Capital announced the successful completion of the full repayment of invested capital in the JF38 project – Hutchinson Island Apartments, located in Savannah, Georgia. This milestone represents one of the first projects to achieve full capital recovery since the enactment of the EB-5 Program Reform and Integrity Act of 2022. The project, initiated in 2023 and completed in 2025, generated more than 1,200 jobs in the region as part of the EB-5 program.

Qualified investors will receive the full return of their $800,000 capital. Other investors will be temporarily redistributed to ensure that their risk exposure remains under control until all requirements are met. Brian Ostar, the company's president, emphasized that such an achievement is rare in the industry, where most initiatives are still in the early stages of investment.

Headquartered in Washington, D.C., EB5 Capital is one of the oldest and most active Regional Center operators in the United States. The company has attracted foreign capital from 79 countries, accumulating a total exceeding $1.8 billion through 50 projects linked to the EB-5 program. All investor funds are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) before being allocated to projects.

The company expressed gratitude to investors for their trust, while also acknowledging the efforts of the execution team, sponsors, and immigration attorneys who played essential roles in overseeing and representing investor interests during the project's development.

Expenses have skyrocketed and the salary stayed the same? There's a question that could be worth more than €100 per month

With the return of inflationary pressure in Portugal, many families are facing a silent accumulation of expense increases — fuel, mortgage payments, and energy bills — while salaries fail to keep pace. According to the Contas-Poupança portal, the key to recovering financial margin may lie not in cutting small daily pleasures, but in reviewing fixed expenses that remain unchanged for years, such as insurance, telecommunications, energy tariffs, or bank fees. The podcast proposes a simple exercise: if expenses rose by 100 euros next month and the salary remained the same, where would you find that money? The answer forces each person to distinguish between expenses outside their control and those that depend on their choices, identifying contracts to renegotiate or financial habits with no real value.
