ONE Tampa is a 42-story luxury condominium tower in the heart of downtown Tampa, Florida. Upon completion, it will be the tallest building in Tampa and one of the tallest on Florida’s west coast—offering 225 luxury residences, retail space, and an array of premier amenities. Although still in the early stages of construction, the project has already presold more than 100 of its 225 condominiums, representing over 45% of its total inventory. These presales translate into over $170 million in revenue, demonstrating robust market demand and underscoring the strength of Kolter’s development strategy.
Kolter, the developer behind ONE Tampa, has a history of selling out its luxury condominium projects before they are even completed. This consistent track record provides an added layer of financial security for EB-5 investors. By achieving strong sales far in advance, Kolter reduces the overall risk of the project, giving investors greater confidence.

The Benefits of Strong Presales
A high level of presales is a significant indicator of a project’s success and brings several critical advantages:
Immediate Revenue and Cash Flow
Buyers at ONE Tampa are required to pay nonrefundable deposits totaling 25% of the purchase price. These deposits generate substantial revenue early in the development process, providing immediate capital for construction and reducing the reliance on external financing. This early infusion of funds helps keep the project on schedule and enhances overall financial stability.
Enhanced Project Viability
When a project achieves a high percentage of presales, it sends a powerful message to lenders. Strong presales confirm that there is real demand for the development and that the units will not languish on the market. This enhanced viability makes it easier for the developer to secure favorable financing terms, minimizing financial risks for investors.
Market Validation
High presales validate that the project’s location, design, and amenities align with buyer preferences. This early endorsement helps reinforce the project’s premium positioning and can further drive sales momentum. By the time construction is nearing completion, a recognized track record of sales success often prompts additional buyers to act quickly to secure the remaining units.
Reduced Risk for EB-5 Investors
For EB-5 investors, strong presales lower both financial and immigration risks. With a significant portion of the building’s inventory already spoken for, the likelihood of the project’s successful completion and timely job creation is much higher. Investors benefit from increased confidence that the project will remain on-budget and on-schedule, ultimately supporting the goal of permanent U.S. residency.
About ONE Tampa
ONE Tampa is a premier urban EB-5 project designed to minimize financial and immigration risks for investors. Developed by Kolter—a leading, well-capitalized developer with a perfect EB-5 track record—ONE Tampa features a three-year loan term and a repayment guaranty from a Kolter parent company. With substantial presales, an independent regional center, and robust job creation, ONE Tampa stands out as one of the highest-quality, lowest-risk urban EB-5 projects available today.
ONE Tampa follows six nearly identical EB-5 urban loan projects in Florida, all of which were developed by Kolter and sponsored by EB5AN. These projects include:
Water Club North Palm Beach (North Palm Beach, Florida)
100 Las Olas (Fort Lauderdale, Florida)
Mark Sarasota (Sarasota, Florida)
VUE Sarasota Bay (Sarasota, Florida)
ONE St. Petersburg (St. Petersburg, Florida)
Saltaire (St. Petersburg, Florida)
All these projects were completed on time and within budget, and 100% of the condominium units were sold—most even before construction was completed. Kolter has successfully repaid EB-5 funds in past projects or is current on all existing obligations, reinforcing the firm’s reputation for reliable performance.
