Building on a Proven Track Record
Rocky River is the 14th Cresswind community developed by Kolter Homes. Over the past 25 years, Kolter has invested in real estate projects totaling more than $30.0 billion in value, developing thousands of single-family homes across the Southeast. As one of the 20 largest private home builders in the United States, Kolter has borrowed billions of dollars and has never failed to repay a loan. All EB-5 investments in Kolter projects are in good standing or have been repaid.
Kolter has extensive experience developing single-family home communities through its business unit, Kolter Homes. It has already developed two other successful Cresswind communities for active adults in the greater Charlotte area: Cresswind Charlotte and Cresswind Wesley Chapel.
