Investor Alert: Indianapolis Medical Office DST  

Investor Alert: Indianapolis Medical Office DST, featured by top securities fraud attorneys, The White Law Group

Investigating Claims involving Indianapolis Medical Office DST 

Are you concerned about your investment in Indianapolis Medical Office 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. 

Inland Private Capital Corporation reportedly offers replacement properties for Section 1031 exchange transactions, as well as other real estate investments, according to its website.   

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. 

The company filed a form D in 2016 to raise capital from investors for the offering, Indianapolis Medical Office DST. The total offering amount sold was purportedly $1,259,186. The sales commissions and placement fees were estimated at 5% of the total offering amount, according to the SEC filing.  

Risk Factors related to a 1031 Exchange 

Property Value Loss – All real estate investments have the potential to lose value over time. 

Tax Status Changes – The income stream and depreciation schedule for any investment property may affect the property owner’s income bracket and/or tax status. An unfavorable tax ruling may cancel deferral of capital gains and result in immediate tax liabilities. 

Possibility of Foreclosure – All financed real estate investments have potential for foreclosure. 

Illiquid Investments – 1031 exchanges are commonly offered through private placement offerings and are illiquid securities. There is no secondary market for these investments. 

Reduction or Elimination of Monthly Cash Flow Distributions – Like any investment in real estate, if a property unexpectedly loses tenants or sustains substantial damage, there is potential for suspension of cash flow distributions. 

Fees/Expenses – Investors’ returns may be affected by the costs associated with the transaction. and may outweigh the tax benefits. 

Investigating Potential Lawsuits  

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