PROJECT SUMMARY
Following the $1.3 billion capital investment made in 2016 called “Merced 2020 Plan”, the City of Merced is currently experiencing a severe housing shortage around the University due to the continuous student population increase, which will be helped in part by Merced Station’s supply. The project is fully-funded, has completed its vertical construction, is currently operational, and has begun pre-leasing to students for the Fall of 2022 and is expected to be 100% pre-leased.
Merced Station has created in excess of 700 EB-5 jobs while offering a secure 4.875% ROI to EB-5 investors, which is paid to investors in quarterly installments immediately. Merced Station is among the safest EB-5 projects on the market due to the recession-resistant demand of the University of California system, which will continue to grow in Merced for many years to come.
