The US real estate market is inefficient for foreign capital.

Finding a 7% yield in Sunbelt industrial isn't the hard part. The hard part is repatriating that yield to Riyadh without surrendering 30% to the IRS via FIRPTA, or having the deal blocked by CFIUS due to proximity to critical infrastructure.

We don't just broker deals. We engineer the specific Delaware LLC and Cayman blocker structures required to make US commercial real estate viable and Sharia-compliant for Saudi family offices and institutions.

Why the US Sunbelt?

Capital follows growth. While gateway cities (NY, SF) face regulatory headwinds and demographic shifts, the Sunbelt provides the demographic fundamentals required for long-term hold strategies.
