Data last updated Oct 23, 2026, 5:45 PM ET · Courts (RECAP) last checked: Oct 24, 2026, 2:43 AM ET · SEC enforcement last checked: covered by the index scan as of Oct 24, 2026, 2:50 AM ET

The short version

Ari Blum is listed as a director on 8 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Feb 2019 and Aug 2026: LAVIT HOLDINGS INC. (Brick Township, NJ — industry reported as "Other" — 2019–2026; $7.72M reported sold to 53 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

Listed alongside Donald Zilkha (8 shared filings), John Uhlein (8 shared filings), Kirstie Maydew (4 shared filings), Tim Shanley (4 shared filings), Jacques Kemp (3 shared filings) and 12 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Ari. Each name links to their own page.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 8 public filings for Ari Blum and found 7 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 62 days after the first sale; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

7 differences found between the filings for Ari Blum — 1 worth asking about (compared 8 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Mar 19, 2025 – May 20, 2025

Form D filed 62 days after the first sale — LAVIT HOLDINGS INC.

The filing says the first sale was Mar 19, 2025. The Form D was filed May 20, 2025 — 62 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 47 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Mar 19, 2020 – Apr 14, 2020

Form D filed 26 days after the first sale — LAVIT HOLDINGS INC.

The filing says the first sale was Mar 19, 2020. The Form D was filed Apr 14, 2020 — 26 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 11 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

7 offerings have no amendment in the last 12 months and may still be open

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — LAVIT HOLDINGS INC. (latest filing May 20, 2025) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — LAVIT HOLDINGS INC. (latest filing Mar 1, 2024) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — LAVIT HOLDINGS INC. (latest filing Jun 9, 2023) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — LAVIT HOLDINGS INC. (latest filing Dec 22, 2022) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — LAVIT HOLDINGS INC. (latest filing Dec 23, 2020) · and 2 more

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. Ask the sponsor which of these raises have closed.

Note · Jun 14, 2017 – Jun 5, 2026

Same name, different state: "Ari Blum" (MD or FL) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is NY or NJ. A separate record, "Ari Blum" with address state MD or FL, is listed on 10 filings — most recently by VORBECK MATERIALS CORP. (Jun 5, 2026). Both records have filings in the same period (Feb 21, 2019 to May 20, 2025).

What this means Two records with one name were active at the same time. That can be one person listing different company addresses, or two different people. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

Sources
Note · Feb 18, 2015

Same name, different state: "Ari Franco Blum" (CA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is NY or NJ. A separate record, "Ari Franco Blum" with address state CA, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by RBL Palmdale Center LLC (Feb 18, 2015). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Feb 21, 2019 to May 20, 2025; the other has one filing dated Feb 18, 2015.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

Sources
Note · May 20, 2025 – Aug 18, 2026

Address moved from New York, NY to Brick Township, NJ — LAVIT HOLDINGS INC.

The people listed on the May 20, 2025 filing give New York, NY; on the Aug 18, 2026 filing they give Brick Township, NJ.

What this means Businesses move; this just shows the two places and dates. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

Sources
Note · Feb 21, 2019 – Aug 18, 2026

Ari Blum is listed with 2 different address states: NY, NJ

NY on 7 filings (Feb 21, 2019 to May 20, 2025); NJ on 1 filing (Aug 18, 2026).

What this means The address on a Form D is usually the company's, not the person's home, so this often just reflects different companies. It can also mean a move. Nothing wrong by itself.

Sources
What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

How this is counted

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.

Counted across every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).

Deals 1

Every issuer that named Ari Blum on a Form D, newest first. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment.

Registrations and other filings

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 1 issuer this person is listed on appears in Form ADV (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026). A person is never an adviser firm; Form ADV is checked for the issuers and the management companies they are listed with.
