Terra Property Trust Inc. Secondary Sales Price is $3.00 per Share

The White Law Group is investigating potential securities claims involving broker dealers who may have improperly recommended Terra Property Trust Inc. to investors. 

Terra Property Trust is an externally managed non-traded REIT that originates, invests in, and manages loans, securities, and assets secured by commercial real estate across the US, according to its website. 

On October 1, 2022, Terra Property Trust, Inc. completed the previously announced merger with Terra Income Fund 6, Inc.

According to Central Trade and Transfer, in April 2024, shares of Terra Property Trust were sold for just $3.00 per share. This could indicate losses for investors as the original offering price was reportedly $10 per share.

Risks of Investing in Terra Property Trust

Lack of liquidity: Non-traded REITs typically have limited liquidity compared to publicly traded REITs. Investors may face challenges in selling their shares, as there is no established public market for them. Redemption programs, if available, often have restrictions. They may only allow redemptions at certain times and at prices below the initial investment. 

Valuation uncertainty: Since non-traded REITs do not trade on public exchanges, their value may be difficult to determine accurately. Share prices are often set by the REIT’s management. They may not reflect the true underlying value of the real estate assets. Investors may face uncertainty about the value of their investment until a liquidity event occurs. 

High fees and commissions: Non-traded REITs typically have high upfront fees and ongoing expenses, including sales commissions, management fees, and other operational costs. These fees can significantly reduce investors’ returns and may not be fully transparent at the time of investment. 

Limited transparency: Non-traded REITs are not subject to the same disclosure requirements as publicly traded REITs. Investors may have limited access to information about the REIT’s financial performance, portfolio composition, and management practices. Thus making it challenging to assess the investment’s risks and potential returns accurately. 

Recovery of Investment Losses – Terra Property Trust

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

If a brokerage firm makes unsuitable investment recommendations or fails to adequately disclose the risks associated with an investment, they may be liable for investment losses through FINRA arbitration. 

FINRA operates the largest securities dispute resolution forum in the United States, and has extensive experience in providing a fair, efficient and effective venue to handle a securities-related dispute. 

Experienced securities attorneys can help you through the FINRA arbitration process. FINRA arbitration can be challenging to navigate, and a skilled attorney with expertise in securities law can significantly enhance your prospects of a successful outcome.

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.
