The Three KBS REITs KBS Growth & IncomeEstablished in January 2015, KBS Capital Markets Group publicly registered this non-traded REIT raising $80M in public and private offerings.
COVID-19, the civil unrest, and a drop in oil prices negatively impacted its properties in Houston, Portland, and Chicago.
KBS Real Estate Investment Trust II (KBS REIT II)Based in Newport Beach, California, and going into effect in 2008, KBS REIT acquired Class A office and industrial properties. These acquisitions were in large metropolitan markets and real-estate-related loans. KBS REIT II closed its primary offering in December 2010 after raising $1.8B in investor equity.
KBS REIT II also lowered its properties' net value by $0.21/share. This was due to the effect of COVID-19 on prices for projected rentals, leasing, and real estate properties.
Net proceeds of the liquidation were estimated at between $3.40 and $3.83 per share. Investors suffered and those who paid the original $10/share offering price were expected to have significant losses.
KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III (KBS REIT III)KBS Capital Markets Group closed its public offering in May 2015 and ended the offering in July 2015. KBS Capital Markets Group’s third non-traded REIT has a portfolio of real estate investments around the United States.
KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III noted that its share price was $10.78/share. They also notified investors that the company could modify, suspend, or end its share redemption program on any grounds as long as it provided ten business days' notice.
Did You Suffer Losses After Your Broker Sold You Shares in a KBS Real Estate Investment Trust?Our KBS REIT investment attorneys represent investors throughout the US. Unfortunately, your financial advisor may have unsuitably recommended this investment to you. Such a complex, risky, illiquid investment requires a high-risk tolerance level many investors do not have.
Your broker may not have fully apprised you of the risks involved in such investments. They may also have neglected to conduct due diligence before marketing KBS Growth & Income, and KBS REIT to you.
Properly advising you and watching out for your best interest should be paramount to your advisor. However, earning high commissions and other payment fees may have been a greater motivation for your financial advisor.
