Soreide Law Group is reviewing potential claims from investors who may have been harmed by questionable sales practices tied to certain securities brokers and financial advisors. One of the investments under review is AW Newport DST, a private placement offering that has drawn scrutiny because of concerns about how it was managed and marketed. Investors should be aware of these issues, and the sections below provide a clear summary of what is known.
AW Newport DST is a Delaware Statutory Trust offered as a Regulation D private placement. These types of investments are often used to pool investor capital into real estate holdings, sometimes marketed as a way to generate passive income and potential tax advantages. Promoters identified with AW Newport included Blake Wettengel and Tanya Muro, who were listed as executive officers of the trust. Like other DST offerings, AW Newport was primarily targeted at accredited investors, typically individuals with higher net worth and investment experience.
According to reports that have been associated with AW Newport, some investors have raised concerns. Certain lawsuits claim—though nothing has been proven—that money from investors may not always have been used as originally intended. Instead, some funds are alleged to have been directed into other real estate ventures or possibly even for the personal benefit of people tied to the offering. These lawsuits make accusations of breach of contract and civil conspiracy, but the outcomes are still uncertain. In addition to these allegations, it is worth noting that the structure of DSTs in general carries risks, including limited liquidity and high upfront commissions, which can create problems for investors who were expecting more flexibility or stability.
Brokers and advisors who recommend investments like AW Newport DST must ensure that their advice aligns with the investor’s objectives, financial profile, and tolerance for risk. Common violations in cases like this include recommending unsuitable products, overstating potential benefits, or failing to disclose important risks. When these obligations are ignored, investors may have grounds to seek recovery through FINRA arbitration or other legal avenues.
