Investor Complaints: Richard Poston

FINRA records indicate that Richard Poston was terminated from H. Beck, Inc. in December of 2015. Since that time, at least two investor complaints have been filed against this broker.

This first complaint was settled for $185,000. This complaint was initiated by an investor who claimed that Mr. Poston made unsuitable investment recommendations, encouraging the overconcentration of funds in non-traded real estate investment trusts (REITs).

As of early June of 2018, the second investor complaint against former H. Beck broker Richard Poston is still listed as pending. An investor is seeking $500,000 in financial compensation for losses that were allegedly sustained due to unsuitable investment recommendations related to high-risk, illiquid real estate investment trusts (REITs).
