Securities Investigation: Derita Road Storage Investors LLC  

Investor Alert: Derita Road Storage Investors LLC  

Are you concerned about your investment in Derita Road Storage Investors LLC? 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.   

The White Law Group is investigating potential claims involving brokerage firms who may have improperly recommended high-risk private placements to investors. Investments such as these are typically sold by brokerage firms in exchange for a large up-front commission. High fees can range from 7-10%, as well as additional “due diligence fees” that can range from 1-3%.    

Derita Road Storage Investors LLC, a real estate investment fund, filed a Form D to raise capital from investors. The total offering amount was purportedly $4,216,190. According to the filings, sales Commissions include selling commissions of 6%, a due diligence allowance of 1%, a managing broker-dealer fee of 1% and a wholesaling fee of 1%. 

The problem with private placement investments is that they typically involve a high degree of risk. They are also often sold as unregistered securities which lack the same regulatory oversight as more traditional investment products like stocks or bonds.  To learn more, please see: Regulation D Private Placement Fraud Attorneys   

How to Recover Investment Losses 

Brokerage firms have two main duties in recommending investments.  First, brokerage firms are required to perform adequate due diligence on any product they recommend. Second, brokerage firms are required to ensure that all recommendations made are suitable for their client in light of the client’s age, investment experience, net worth, income, and investment objectives.  

FINRA Dispute Resolution is an arbitration venue for investors with claims against their brokerage firm or financial professional. ?It provides investors with an opportunity to attempt to recoup their investment losses without filing such claims in court.
