The short version

Eric D. Garay is listed as an executive officer on 11 SEC Form D filings by 7 issuers between Jun 2011 and Apr 2014. Largest by amount reported sold: Bentall Kennedy Management (U.S.) Limited Partnership (Seattle, WA — commercial — 2013–2014; $8.41M reported sold to 20 investors), BKCM (U.S.) Limited Partnership (Seattle, WA — commercial — 2013–2014; $4.42M reported sold to 12 investors), Bentall Kennedy Management (Canada) ULC (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada (as filed: A1) — commercial — 2011; $2.06M reported sold to 1 investors), Bentall Kennedy (U.S.) G.P. LLC (Seattle, WA — commercial — 2011; $153 reported sold to 1 investors), Bentall Kennedy (U.S.) Holdings G.P. LLC (Seattle, WA — commercial — 2011; $69 reported sold to 3 investors) and 2 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 7 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, over about 3 years. Across those companies the filings report $14.9M sold in total.

Listed alongside Douglas Reid (11 shared filings), Gary Carpenter (11 shared filings), Gary Whitelaw (11 shared filings), Lawrence W. Neilson (11 shared filings), Michael D. McKee (11 shared filings) and 34 others.

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

All 7 issuers belong to the sponsor group Bentall Kennedy (7 issuers, $2.5M reported sold, 2011–2014).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Bentall Kennedy has 7 companies on file and $2.5M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 2 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below. Not yet searched: SEC enforcement releases.

What this means 2 records came back. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.

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).
