Concerned about your investment in RK Edwards Mill DST?

Are you concerned about your investment in RK Edwards Mill DST? If so, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you by filing a FINRA Arbitration claim against the brokerage firm that sold you the investment.

Rance King Properties Inc dba RK Properties reportedly specializes in multifamily investments, according to its website. They have over 3,900 units under management across 18 properties. 

According to SEC filings, the company filed a Form D to raise capital from investors in 2017.  The entity type was purportedly Business Trust and the total offering amount was purportedly $22,560,827.

Delaware Statutory Trusts, or DSTs, are an alternative for 1031 exchange investors seeking replacement properties, allegedly offering the potential for monthly income and diversification without any on-going landlord duties.

DSTs are not appropriate for all investors, as they come with a few disadvantages, compared to owning a property outright. 1031 DSTs cannot raise new capital, leaving investors holding the bag if expensive repairs are needed. The investors also have no control over the property, or the ability to make decisions about the property. While the sponsor may welcome feedback from the investor, they don’t allow any actions to be taken by said investor.

Additionally, 1031 DSTs are illiquid, and it can often be difficult to find a buyer when the investor is ready to sell.

The White Law Group is investigating the liability that FINRA registered brokerage firms may have for improperly recommending high-risk DST investments to investors.

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

Fortunately, FINRA does provide for an arbitration forum for investors to resolve disputes if a broker or brokerage firm makes an unsuitable investment recommendation or fails to adequately disclose the risks associated with an investment. It is possible that they could be found liable for investment losses in a FINRA arbitration claim.
