Quote from @Jordan Townes:
so why are you people that already sunk 40k into this not paying a little more a getting a lawyer?
I have already spent quite a bit on attorney's fees myself. I agree more people need to inquire. I am a GP on one of their deals. It is a disaster! I was a student they offered to sponsor a deal for and it has cost me everything, literally.
Sadly, there are quite a few people over 65 on the verge of losing all their retirement money they put into these guy's investments that are doing terribly while they both go start new ones. They have one fund called the Ekahi fund which Jessi who commented above is in. It is a 30M fund on the verge of failure. I am on one property it funded although I was never told that until I discovered it myself recently. There is another fund called Aloha, which is about 30M and is also doing very poorly. They have people invested in individual properties, especially students.
The property I am on they are trying to avoid foreclosure by turning it over to a rescue fund and diluting investor's money. In the original webinars for this fund, they told them they would return all capital in three years. They are at year 2 1/2 and now say you "might" get 50% in 3-5 more years. I have not received any return on my money. They held a webinar for the Ekahi fund and told them they fired the property management, false they quit due to lack of funds. They said did not need their approval to turn their money over to new GP's but we will let you vote anyway.
I am also on the loan. I have been kicked out of every form of communication relating to this deal. When they decided to inquire about the rescue fund they left me out of all of it then threw me on a call with the lender, rescue fund, an attorney they hired for themselves and a few partners. Talk about mistreating someone and trying to back them into a corner, I had no information. I have since inquired with a new attorney, more money out of my pocket. It does appear everything they have done in the past four years is catching up, people are reporting them but at the same time, they start new investments with new people and keep selling the program. I hope more investors come on and give honest reviews so others can be spared from the worst experience I've had in many years.
