Starbucks expands its business in Puerto Rico

[Worldway Expert Interpretation] The fundamental reason for Starbucks' major expansion in Puerto Rico is its recognition of the territory's continuously booming market as a world-renowned tourist destination and its immense future development prospects. The DLJ Four Seasons Hotel and Resort project, a hot-selling offering from Worldway, is located in a prime location in Puerto Rico. This project is managed by the multi-billion dollar real estate fund DLJ and co-invested by the two major shareholders of the Four Seasons Hotel Group, Bill Gates and the Prince of Saudi Arabia. These investment giants are drawn to the project by the promising and substantial returns in this golden vacation destination. The global luxury brand, Four Seasons Hotel Group, has further stated its intention to establish this hotel as a leader in the Caribbean hotel market.

Furthermore, the project's projected job creation is 1.4 times the requirement set by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and EB-5 funds hold a first-priority lien on project assets, ensuring investors have first-priority repayment rights. Especially with the upcoming September 30th changes to U.S. investment immigration policies and potential price increases, this project's I-526 has already received exemplar approval from USCIS and is protected by the grandfather clause, remaining unaffected by the policy changes and price hikes. It has successfully beaten the September 30th deadline and is being aggressively sought after by groups of investors. To participate in the group purchase and secure the final spots for this premium project (group purchase ends September 30th), please call 400-138-2929.
