With the collapse of the real estate market over the last few years it is not surprising that many of the securities fraud cases we see today involve real estate investment trusts (REITs). REITs can be an extremely risky investment. Unfortunately, because of the interest they offer to investors (and because REITs are a high commission product), unscrupulous financial advisors sell these investments to conservative and income seeking investors.
The following is a list of some of the REITs currently being offered by brokerage firms. If you have questions about these investments or believe that you have been the victim or a securities fraud involving one of these investments, The White Law Group may be able to help.
The White Law Group, LLC is a national securities fraud, securities arbitration, and securities regulation/compliance law firm with offices in Chicago, Illinois and Boca Raton, Florida. To speak to a securities attorney, please call the firm’s Chicago office at 312-238-9650.
