Evergreen Equity Fund I
Evergreen Equity Fund I is a private real estate debt fund focused on providing short-term financing for land and lot acquisition. The Fund specializes in originating first-position bridge loans to experienced builders and developers, enabling them to acquire strategically located land and shovel-ready lots for future residential development.
​
By targeting the earliest stage of the development lifecycle, the Fund offers investors a unique opportunity to earn consistent, asset-backed returns with strong collateral coverage and shorter duration loans. All loans are underwritten conservatively and secured by real property, with a clear path to exit via builder take-downs, or construction loans.

Key Highlights
-
Strategic Land-Backed Lending
Capital is deployed into first-position loans secured by entitled or developable land in high-growth areas. -
Short-Term Bridge Loans
Loans typically range from 6 to 12 months, designed to be refinanced when vertical construction begins—resulting in faster capital recycling. -
Capital Preservation Focus
Low loan-to-value (LTV) ratios and hard-asset collateral provide a strong margin of safety. -
Experienced Borrowers
We partner only with vetted, proven operators who have a track record of successful project execution. -
Disciplined Underwriting
Projects are evaluated based on land entitlement status, builder pipeline, and market fundamentals to ensure risk is minimized. -
Investor-First Structure
Management compensation is subordinated—investors are paid first, before any interest is converyed to Managers.
