Our Heritage

Cross-Border Capital Meets Private Market Access

Capital United's founders, Scott Fuller and Bradford Stedem, co-founded EB5 United, an affiliated firm specializing in the EB-5 immigrant investor program. Since 2011, EB5 United has raised more than $1.7 billion in cross-border capital from foreign nationals (as of April 2026), deployed across U.S. real estate development projects.

That experience — building compliant, tax-efficient vehicles for international investors, operating across regulatory regimes, and sourcing institutional-quality deal flow — is the foundation Capital United is built on today.
