At BAI, we have the experience, contacts, and resources necessary to offer exclusive investment opportunities not available from other sources. We stand unique as we also invest alongside our clients in all of our projects and real estate funds. Our investment offerings balance risk and profitability which enables us to retain a portfolio of clients with substantive purchasing power.
Our Approach From identifying opportunities, to managing each project all the way through completion. We pride ourselves in overseeing every aspect of development with a result-driven approach. Each BAI Capital business is structured as a closed, private fund that capitalizes funds from highincome families and individuals located inside and outside the United States. Investments are pooled alongside our capital into stringently analyzed and SEC-compliant structured equity funds normally having a life cycle of 5 to 7 years. In certain projects, BAI Capital also offers its clients the possibility of investing in property development funds structured according to the rules of the Federal USCIS EB5 Investor Visa Program for Immigrants. In addition to participating in economic returns, the investor and their family can submit a permanent VISA or Green Card application for the United States. Our built properties located in prime areas are then available for purchase to own or rent, complete with optional turn-key rental maintenance and attractive mortgaging for international and American buyers.
Our Values Our commitment to our clients and partners is what makes us stand out. We believe that lasting relationships are the key to long-term success. We have found that our attractive investments that balance risk and profitability, are what allow us to retain a portfolio of clients with substantive purchasing power, investors that accompany us in different projects.

Our Strategies Our development model is similar to that of a growth fund where the main objective is to maximize the return on investment -ROI- by appreciating the capital invested. At BAI Capital we focus on generating maximum performance for our clients by applying their resources to projects and companies at a very early stage and exiting the fund once stabilized. We only select development locations that demonstrate the best qualities for growth: high demand, low supply, a stable and growing economy, and a diverse and well-supported community.
Growing with BAI Capital Let’s grow big, by building smart.
Our 10 year strategy as a boutique developer and turnkey property investment & management partner is to develop and manage select US properties totaling over $300,000,000 USD in value.
We reach our goal by: Multiplying our invested capital: We stand by the credo you are only as good as your last project.

Our complete team of sophisticated investment advisers, award-winning development partners, and rigorous immigration attorneys allow us to grow every year. Developing properties in supplyconstrained high-growth locations: Location is the foundation of every successful property development. We constantly analyze the market, economies, and communities of Florida, to identify the best locations for both mid and long-term growth in untapped and unsaturated developing markets.
Serving the needs of our Florida communities: As an immigrant in the land of opportunity, we worked tirelessly to create a company that not only creates jobs and provides value to our local community but also helps investors from all over the world, to partake in the American dream themselves. That’s the reason why we created BAI Capital. Arturo Venti CEO Surpassing the goals of our investors: At BAI Capital, we truly value the relationships with every one of our partners and clients. We consistently strive to provide a personalized approach by offering a way for each of our investors to maximize their return on investment through matched real estate development projects and specially crafted investment opportunities.

Fixed Income Investments Real estate equity partnerships are created to raise capital for ongoing real estate investments.
Real estate development funds can provide investors like you with stable and hands-free income.
Invest directly into the developer company as an equity partner with secured 7% minimum yearly income, plus fund payout – in US Dollars.
Real estate equity funds are a good investment choice when: • • • •
You want to gain access to exclusive US investments. You are looking to increase your wealth with returns in US dollars. Your goal is to diversify your portfolio and maintain ties to your home country. You seek to protect your capital against inflation.
More on these funds:
A general partner (GP) creates the fund. The GP asks accredited investors, known as limited partners (LPs) to invest equity in the partnership. Those funds, pooled with money borrowed from banks and other lenders, are invested in exclusive Florida real estate properties developed by BAI Capital.
How we stand out RELP: Real Estate Limited Partnerships (BAI) A real estate limited partnership (RELP) is like a real estate investment group. It is an entity formed to buy and hold a portfolio of properties, or sometimes just one property. However, RELPs exist for a finite number of years. REIT: Real Estate Investment Trusts A real estate investment trust (REIT) is created when a corporation (or trust) is formed to use investors’ money to purchase, operate, and sell income-producing properties. REITs are bought and sold on major exchanges, just like stocks and exchange-traded funds. REIG: Real Estate Investment Groups Real estate investment groups (REIGs) are sort of like small mutual funds for rental properties. REIGs may also earn income from mortgage lending, or property management fees. REMF: Real Estate Mutual Funds Real estate mutual funds invest primarily in REITs and real estate operating companies. They can provide investors with much broader asset selection than can be achieved through buying individual REITs.

THESE TYPES OF INVESTMENTS ARE CENTERED ON REAL ESTATE.
Yet only the first type, the real estate partnership fund, allows you to invest directly alongside us, the developer, in a specific project of your choosing. Another key advantage for investors in our developments is that the investors’ capital is secured against the developers’ assets. In other words, preferred investors
have a reciprocal incentive alongside the developer as the latter gets paid after the former, due to the legal structure of the fund payout and distribution. This type of investment partnership in real estate is mutually beneficial and encourages transparency and performance.
EB-5 VISA PROGRAM You and your family can petition for your US Green Card via the EB5 Visa Program. When you invest 500,000 USD or more into the US economy you can apply to receive your US Green Card, which paves the way for your US Citizenship. Accredited investors buy preferred shares as an equity partner in our SEC-regulated real estate development funds, eligible immigration investments overseen by the federal government agency USCIS. In exchange for investing in the US economy and creating American jobs, the investor gains the chance to petition for the US Green Card. BAI Capital can help guarantee that your petition will succeed. Our 12-year track record in successfully facilitating this process for families like yours is 100%. * EB5 Visa / Green Card is eligible for the investor, spouse, and children under 21.
Where we stand in the EB-5 visa world Large EB-5 Firms These are companies that offer a range of properties to invest in for Green Card eligibility. Often there is no direct connection to the property being developed. Middleman brokers / immigration lawyers Brokers and law firms who represent the client in applying for their petition. Immigration lawyers are essential to a successful petition, but they are not the only criteria. Developers with turn-key immigration management / BAI These are firms that on top of developing properties manage the EB-5 process for clients - from beginning to end. The umbrella management team consists of project capital raise, development, and management, as well as all the legal paperwork required to manage an EB-5 project and the immigrants’ application.
We at BAI Capital are one of the few American developers who also manage EB-5 projects and the accounts of our immigrant investors. The main advantages to our approach are a closer relationship to the build being invested in, supported by more detailed attention and guidance of all components in the multi-stage EB-5 Green Card petition.
