Investor Dispute

On October 20, 2022, an investor alleged that in 2016 Brock Brady misrepresented various investments, including a real estate investment trust (REIT), as conservative, secure, and lacking significant risks. The client seeks $270,000 in damages in this pending dispute.

FINRA Rule 2020

FINRA Rule 2020 forbids the use of deceptive, manipulative, and otherwise unethical methods to influence the purchase and sale of securities. This includes the misrepresentation of facts related to investments, such as their limitations, requirements, or potential returns.

What is a real estate investment trust?

A real estate investment trust (REIT) is a company that owns and manages real estate properties. REITs offer investors the opportunity to earn returns without taking on direct responsibility for the operation of these properties. However, the lack of liquidity associated with REITs and other risks can make them unsuitable for many investors.
