For a Developer’s Real Estate Investment in an approved development, the minimum qualifying investment is US$325,000, and the investment is generally associated with a resale eligibility after the required holding period.
The Private Real Estate Investment option includes approved private property, such as a condominium/share from US$325,000 or a single-family private home from US$600,000, with a required holding period before resale.
The PBO qualifies applicants through a minimum US$250,000 investment into a unit of an Approved Public Benefit Project, supporting national development priorities while providing the same citizenship outcome.
