Property for Equity · Funds for Equity
Your land is your equity.
Ours is execution.
Two streams — a property owner's land contribution and qualified capital — can move through one project-specific JV concept. River evaluates the property, structures the capital path, coordinates execution, and moves only subject to final documents.
The Equity Engine — drawn to spec
Two streams in. One engine. Sponsor economics last.
Property owners and qualified capital do not need the same pitch. They need the same structure: a project-specific JV concept where land value, capital, budget controls, reporting, and exit rights are documented before anyone relies on the opportunity.

The Developer
One accountable principal. The whole value chain in-house.
Property for Equity and Funds for Equity are programs of River Business Corp — an operator-led, vertically integrated Florida real-estate developer. The person who evaluates the property is the same organization that engineers it, permits it, builds it, and reports it to owners and investors.
River Business Corp, led by Daniel Jorge Oliveira — Founder & Head of Development.
A Florida developer-operator with decades of integrated construction, engineering, and real-estate development experience. Work is led across English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
Operator-led, not broker-led. The team evaluating your property is the same team that designs, permits, and builds it. — River Business Corp operating principle
Design & engineering
Civil, structural, and MEP design under one roof — drawings that anticipate how the project gets built and permitted.
Due diligence & analysis
Property, title, feasibility, and market review run before anyone relies on the opportunity. The downside is studied first.
Permitting & entitlements
In-house permit coordination compresses the entitlement timeline and keeps the schedule under the operator's control.
Construction management
Trades, finishes, and specialty work coordinated internally — cost, schedule, and quality controlled by the operator, not outsourced.
Capital strategy
The capital path is structured for each project and moved only through final offering and subscription documents with counsel.
Owner & investor reporting
Decision gates, budgets, and milestones reported back to owners and investors throughout the project's life.
Operator-led. Not broker-led.
The Waterfall
A floor, not a stack.
Each member economics are modeled as a greater-of floor before River promote. Final terms belong in the operating agreement, contribution documents, lender documents, and any offering documents.
↑ Senior construction debt repaid first — then the four equity tiers:
Property preference — modeled floor
Modeled economics on the accepted land value, subject to legal, tax, title, lender, and final-document review.
Capital preference — qualified capital
Modeled economics for qualified investors only, subject to final offering documents and applicable securities laws.
Equity participation
Residual profit shared pro-rata by stake — the greater of this or your preference.
Developer carry — last
River promote is subordinate to the member economics established in the final agreements.
Sponsor economics lastEquity Participation
How land and capital participate as equity.
Rather than a one-time sale or a passive loan, a property owner's land and qualified capital can participate as equity through the project's joint venture. The structure is the same for both sides; only the paperwork differs. Every step below is subject to diligence and final documents.
Contribution
The owner contributes land value; qualified investors contribute capital. Each contribution is documented before it is relied upon.
Diligence gate
River verifies value, title, feasibility, financing, permitting, and market pricing. The project proceeds only if diligence supports it.
Project vehicle
A project-specific JV concept is confirmed by counsel. Contributions, control rights, reporting, and exit terms are set in the operating documents.
Waterfall
Distributions follow the modeled greater-of floors — property, then capital, then shared participation — with sponsor economics last.
For the property owner
Subject to legal and tax review, the owner may contribute or otherwise structure property value for participation in the venture — keeping a stake in what the land becomes rather than exiting at today's price. Owner obligations, control rights, and any cash-out are defined expressly in the final documents.
For qualified capital
Qualified investors participate only through final offering and subscription documents, subject to suitability and applicable securities laws. Capital preference is modeled before the shared upside, and ahead of any sponsor promote.
Your Options
Three ways forward. One keeps the upside.
Sell now
Cash today, taxed today. You exit — and someone else captures what the land becomes.
Wait & hold
Keep the land, the carrying costs, and the risk. Value may come — or it may not.
Contribute as equity
Subject to legal and tax review, the owner may contribute or otherwise structure property value for participation. Upside remains possible only if diligence, financing, permits, market pricing, and final documents support the project.
Future Returns
What participation could look like — illustrative only.
Participation is modeled as the greater of a preferred floor and a share of the project's upside. The figures below are illustrative placeholders used only to explain the shape of the structure — not a projection, forecast, or promise of any actual result. Real outcomes depend on diligence, financing, permitting, market pricing, construction, and the final documents.
Conservative
If the project performs near the downside case, participation is anchored to the modeled preferred floor — the structure's protective tier — ahead of any sponsor promote.
IllustrativeRealistic
In a base case, the preferred floor is met and the residual upside is shared pro-rata by stake — the "greater-of" begins to favor participation over a fixed return.
IllustrativeOptimistic
If the project outperforms, the shared participation exceeds the preferred floor — the case where contributing as equity is designed to outrun a one-time sale.
IllustrativeOwner outcome vs. a direct sale today — illustrative shape only
Bar lengths are illustrative and not to scale to any specific deal. The equity path carries project risk; a sale does not. Tax treatment depends on final structure and your own CPA/counsel review. Nothing here is a promise of a higher return.
Your Protections
The downside is reviewed before the upside is presented.
Legal and tax review
Tax treatment depends on final structure, contribution documents, ownership, debt, and CPA/counsel review.
Owner obligations defined
Owner cash, lender obligations, credit support, and control rights must be expressly defined in final documents.
Milestone reversion
LOI and definitive agreements should define financing, permitting, start-date, default, cure, and reversion remedies.
