2. Colin Behring recognized as San Francisco Bay Area “Developer of the Year.”
Colin Behring’s recognition as the San Francisco Bay Area’s “Developer of the Year” underscores his transformative impact on Oakland’s urban landscape.

Continued Innovation in the EB-5 Landscape
1. Behring’s History of Innovation
Behring Regional Center has consistently set benchmarks for innovation in the EB-5 industry. From pioneering partial capital contributions in 2016 to introducing customizable investment options and leveraging 401k rollovers, Behring has transformed the landscape for EB-5 investors. In 2018, Colin Behring secured confirmation from USCIS that partial capital contributions complied with program requirements, enabling investors to file without sourcing the full amount upfront—a groundbreaking shift for domestic EB-5 applicants facing tech layoffs and visa renewal concerns. Behring also successfully litigated against restrictive USCIS policies, including the 2019 Modernization Rule, restoring investor-friendly regulations and saving the EB-5 program from stagnation.
2. Letters of Support for Expedited Processing in the Infrastructure Set-aside Category
The Government’s VA lease at Behring Capital’s CIVIC development site received letters of support for expedited processing due to its urgent public benefit and potential qualification under the rare infrastructure set-aside category for EB-5 visas. Serving over 400,000 veterans in the San Francisco Bay Area, the lease addresses critical healthcare infrastructure needs, ensuring uninterrupted delivery of essential services and modernized facilities. Its alignment with USCIS criteria for government interests, illustrated by the US Government’s administration of the project highlights its significance as a stable and impactful investment opportunity for EB-5 investors.
3. Government Repayment Guarantee
The VA lease at Behring’s CIVIC project was awarded on an Emergency Basis, after a competitive market study and analytical process 1950 Franklin was seen as the perfect spot to anchor the future of the VA’s operations in the East Bay. The lease award not only includes a commercial tenancy contract but compensation for tenant improvements upon delivery. This structure not only ensures financial stability but also aligns with EB-5 requirements of job creation within the remodeling contract.
The CIVIC project represents a rare opportunity to invest in a government-backed development with predictable Government returns while supporting critical services for veterans.
For EB-5 investors seeking stability and impact, this project is unmatched.
