WHAT NEW CONSTRUCTION TRENDS ARE YOU SEEING IN THE GLOBAL RCBI INDUSTRY ESPECIALLY WITH THE IMPACT OF COVID-19 ?
The COVID-19 pandemic has created some significant challenges for our EB-5 business , but HomeFed has risen to the challenge . The most notable challenge has been the inability to travel to our target markets . Because of this , we have been utilizing various technology platforms that allow us to interact with our partners and clients in a surprisingly efficient manner . While we hope to and anticipate traveling again in the near future , video conferences and video calls have been an invaluable tool in these challenging times .

WHAT NEW CONSTRUCTION TRENDS ARE YOU SEEING IN THE GLOBAL RCBI INDUSTRY ESPECIALLY WITH THE IMPACT OF COVID-19 ?
The construction industry will need a thorough review ; the new projects we are witnessing are indicative of rehabilitation promoted in line with the European Ecological Pact . The basic principle of the future , in our opinion , will correlate nature with houses and cities . Greater investment in villas instead of apartments / suites will be a trend after Covid-19 as they provide a notion of greater physical distance or greater security in this post-pandemic world . With regards to the global RCBI industry , we strongly believe that traditional construction methods must undergo an urgent revolution so that construction times may be reduced , increasing the return on investment dynamics and reducing the carbon footprint worldwide .
