About the Offering – San Gabriel Self Storage Partners, LLC

Risks of Regulation D Private Placements
Regulation D offerings like San Gabriel Self Storage Partners, LLC are typically marketed to accredited investors seeking alternative investments with the potential for higher returns. However, these investments carry significant risk, especially when compared to publicly traded securities.
Common risks of Reg D private placements include:
- Illiquidity: These investments are not traded on public exchanges and may be difficult to exit.
- Lack of Transparency: Limited disclosure requirements mean investors may not have access to complete financials or business updates.
- High Fees & Commissions: Commissions and offering expenses can exceed 10%, reducing potential returns.
- Unsuitability for Most Investors: These investments are often complex and speculative, and may be inappropriate for conservative investors.
Broker-Dealer Due Diligence Obligations
Broker-dealers who recommend private placements have a duty to perform reasonable due diligence and ensure the investments are suitable based on their clients’ investment profiles. This includes:
- Reviewing the issuer’s business plan, financial condition, and use of proceeds.
- Disclosing material risks and conflicts of interest.
- Recommending the investment only when it aligns with the client’s financial goals and risk tolerance.
Failure to do so may constitute negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, or failure to supervise—potential grounds for a FINRA arbitration claim.
FINRA Arbitration vs. Class Action
Most investors who wish to pursue claims against their financial advisors must do so through FINRA arbitration, not class action litigation.
Advantages of FINRA arbitration include:
- Faster and more cost-effective resolution
- Customized outcomes based on your individual case
- Binding awards enforceable by law
Most brokerage account agreements include a mandatory arbitration clause making FINRA the default forum for disputes.
