The Behring Difference: Vertical Integration & Developer Legacy

Back December 21st, 2025 Greg Sheehan

Behring has successfully raised capital for third-party projects but shines as the model of vertical integration and efficiency.  This differentiator is a key decision maker for investors in the projects we fund with EB-5 capital.

Vertical Integration as an advantage above Traditional Regional Center models.

Most EB-5 investors do not realize that the majority of Regional Centers are merely “middlemen.” They rent their license to third-party developers, creating a disconnect between the money manager and the project builder.  This business model is directly tied to the authorization of the Regional Center EB-5 program.

Behring Co. is fundamentally different. We are a Vertically Integrated Developer-Operator bringing tech-forward amenities to Real Estate. 

What is Vertical Integration in EB-5?

Vertical Integration in EB-5 means the Regional Center and the Developer are the same entity. This structure bypasses typical brokerage models and ensures that the people managing your immigration petition are the same people building the assets.

Why this protects investors:

  1. Transparency: You have direct access to management and finances of the real estate project.

  2. Durability:  This relationship continues past any EB-5 Regional Center authorization lapses or disruptions.

  3. Accountability:  Our team is active at the real estate projects themselves allowing for real-time connectivity.

Institutional Validation: The VA Lease & Government Tenants

Behring projects are validated by the highest standards. A prime example is our selection by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for a major facility in Oakland, across the street from 1900 Broadway, extending our urban campus.

Track Record & Approvals

An EB-5 project is only as good as its immigration success. Behring maintains a 100% approval history on all job-creation requirements.
