HIGHLIGHTS
1
PRIME LOCATION
The Jackson project is located at the center of Long Island City (LIC). LIC is New York’s fastest growing neighborhood. Its recent growth has opened door to a vibrant mix of things to see and do. The area has one of the most highly accessible transportation hubs, including 8 different subway lines. It is also rich in cultural diversity and home to a large community of artists. LIC is packed with museums, theaters and art spaces, including the infamous MoMA PS1 – one of the largest contemporary art institutions in the country. Rents in this area are competitive but not off-the-chart high like Manhattan, while geographically still managed to be close to the city. This makes LIC the ideal place for young professionals to live in and the highly profitable investment option for real estate investors.

TEA QUALIFIED
The Jackson Project qualifies for TEA despite the stricter regulations in the EB-5 Reform Bill that was passed on March 15th, 2022. Being qualified for TEA also means that the minimum investment amount per investor is lower. Per the new regulations, TEA projects are placed at $800k per investor, while non-TEA projects are placed at $1.05M.
