Brentwood Real Estate Partners Securities Investigation

Brentwood Real Estate Partners, LLC Securities Investigation, featured by top securities fraud attorneys, The White Law Group

Concerned about your investment in Brentwood Real Estate Partners, LLC?

The White Law Group is investigating potential securities fraud lawsuits against broker dealers or sales agents who may have unsuitably recommended Brentwood Real Estate Partners, LLC, a syndicated conservation easement, to investors.

Syndicated conservation easement investments are private placement investments promising tax deductions possibly worth four to four-and-a-half times a person’s investment. That means an investor could hypothetically turn a $100,000 investment into $400,000 or more in tax deductions.

The company filed a form D to raise capital from investors for the offering Brentwood Real Estate Partners, LLC, according to filings with the SEC. The total offering amount sold was purportedly $3,360,000.

The Department of Justice reportedly filed a lawsuit against several conservation easement sponsors including EcoVest Capital in 2018 after the IRS began investigating taxpayers who are using questionable appraisals, and taking inappropriately large deductions for easements.

The lawsuit alleges that the companies are overvaluing and fraudulently distributing conservation easement tax deductions. The suit is currently ongoing.

Investors who received charitable contribution deductions of more than 2.5 times their investment could possibly be audited, and potentially even hit with a revised tax bill if it is determined that the appraisals were inflated.

Potential Lawsuits to Recover Financial Losses

Prior to making recommendations to an individual investor, brokerage firms are required by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) to disclose all the risks of an investment. Recommendations should only be made if the investment is suitable for an individual investor given their age, investment objections, investment experience and risk tolerance.

Brokerage firms that do not perform adequate due diligence on an investment and/or make unsuitable recommendations can be held accountable for investment losses through FINRA arbitration.
