Here we go again. Caution on non-traded REITS is a wise call, and running independent broker/dealers fast and loose has been the downfall of many, many, IB/Ds. Sometimes inexperienced brokers do not know any better, same for independent firms with no discipline where anything goes. Remember how Roth ran off the highly regarded Joby Gruber at FSC and an experienced replacement CEO with great experience from AG Edwards.

Be careful, when anything goes as advisor reputations are at stake and they don’t know it.

Mr Winks- So you say “Roth ran off Gruber?” The facts of this situation are detailed on FINRA brokercheck, so before you state untruths make sure you have your facts straight.
