CAI Las Vegas Hotel Partners Fund: Investigating Potential Lawsuits

The White Law Group is investigating potential securities claims involving broker dealers who may have improperly recommended CAI Las Vegas Hotel Partners Fund to investors.

CAI Investments, based in Las Vegas, Nevada, is a vertically integrated real estate development company that reportedly finances, develops and manages commercial properties in key markets across the United States, according to Bloomberg.

Hotel Project in 2019- CAI Las Vegas Hotel Partners Fund

According to the Reno Journal, CAI Investments made plans for a mixed use hotel project in 2019. The non-gaming hotel was part of a mixed-use project that included an apartment complex by developer The Calida Group, as well as retail and restaurants, including Chick-fil-A, Wahoo’s Fish Taco and Denny’s.

According to SEC filings, the company filed a Form D to raise capital from investors through the offering CAI Las Vegas Hotel Partners Fund in 2021. According to the filings, the offering type was equity and the total offering amount was reportedly $34,500,000. The sales compensation recipient was purportedly Emerson Equity, according to the Reg D.

The White Law Group is investigating potential securities claims involving FINRA registered brokerage firms who may have unsuitably recommended alternative investments such as CAI Investments offerings to investors.

Complex Investment Products

These reg D private placement investments are often riskier and more complex than traditional investments, and are only suitable for high net worth, sophisticated investors. They often have high fees and sales commissions, making them an attractive product for financial advisors to sell.

Broker dealers are required to perform adequate due diligence on any investment they recommend. They must ensure that all recommendations are suitable for the investor. Recommendations should be in line with the investor’s age, risk tolerance, net worth, and investment experience.

Despite the risks of investing in this type of alternative investments, brokerage firms continue to push this type of investment because of the high commissions associated with their sale and creation.

Class Action vs. Individual FINRA Arbitration Lawsuit 

People often wonder whether a large class action lawsuit is a better litigation option for them than an individual FINRA arbitration case.  The answer depends on many factors, but typically if the loss sustained is large (say larger than $100,000), an individual arbitration claim is likely a better option.  Class actions as a recovery option are more appropriate for grouping large numbers of individuals who have small claims – too small to generally pursue individually.
