Ernesto Chavez (CRD: 4315877) faces a new pending claim on BrokerCheck over an investment made in 2018. The customer alleges $180,000 in damages, and no arbitrator has ruled on the claim.

Soreide Law Group is investigating potential investor claims involving possible sales practice violations by securities brokers and financial advisors who recommended certain alternative real estate investments. One investment raising serious questions is Inspired Senior Living of Brookhaven DST, a private placement tied to senior housing real estate. This product has been associated with troubling developments that investors should be aware of, including suspended distributions and regulatory scrutiny. The sections below outline key facts and concerns related to this investment.
Inspired Senior Living of Brookhaven DST is a Delaware Statutory Trust formed to acquire and operate a senior living facility. The offering was sponsored by Inspired Healthcare Capital, a real estate investment firm that focused on senior housing assets such as independent living, assisted living, and memory care properties. The Brookhaven DST was offered to investors through brokerage firms beginning around 2021 as a private placement, meaning it was not publicly traded and was available only to eligible investors. Like many DSTs, it was marketed as a passive investment, and in some cases as a potential option for investors completing a Section 1031 exchange. The offering reportedly involved nearly $20 million in investor equity and included substantial upfront fees and selling compensation paid to broker-dealers.
Since mid-2025, investors in Inspired Healthcare Capital–sponsored offerings, including the Brookhaven DST, have faced significant negative developments. Distributions to investors were reportedly halted, eliminating expected income streams. At the same time, Inspired Healthcare Capital suspended new offerings and shut down its internal property management platform following executive-level departures. Property operations were transferred to outside management companies, raising questions about oversight and continuity. In addition, public reports indicate that the sponsor has been under review by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These events may be especially concerning given the illiquid nature of DST investments, which typically do not offer a ready secondary market or clear exit options.
Losses tied to DST investments may stem not only from operational issues, but also from how these products were sold. Investors have raised concerns that brokers may have recommended this DST despite its high-risk, illiquid structure, particularly to retirees or investors seeking stable income and capital preservation. Other potential issues include inadequate disclosure of risks, failure to explain that distributions were not guaranteed, understatement of fees and conflicts of interest, and overconcentration of client assets in alternative investments. Investors who were misled or given unsuitable recommendations may have the right to pursue claims, often through FINRA arbitration against the brokerage firm involved.
