The short version

Frederick Gortner is listed as an executive officer on 6 SEC Form D filings by 6 issuers between Sep 2009 and Mar 2017. Largest by amount reported sold: PALADIN REALTY LATIN AMERICA INVESTORS III LP (Los Angeles, CA — pooled investment fund — 2009; $389.3M reported sold to 14 investors), Paladin Realty Latin America Investors IV-CI, LP (Los Angeles, CA — pooled investment fund — 2013; $75.8M reported sold to 2 investors), Paladin Realty Latin America Investors V, LP (Los Angeles, CA — pooled investment fund — 2015; $61M reported sold to 1 investors), Paladin Realty Brazil Investors III, LP (Los Angeles, CA — pooled investment fund — 2011; $22M reported sold to 1 investors), Paladin Realty Brazil Investors III (Del), LP (Los Angeles, CA — pooled investment fund — 2011; $1.55M reported sold to 3 investors) and 1 more (all listed below).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 6 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, over about 8 years. Across those companies the filings report $549.7M sold in total.

Listed alongside James R. Worms (6 shared filings), John A. Gerson (4 shared filings), Michael B. Lenard (4 shared filings), Axel Frederico Rasmussen Chaves (3 shared filings), Philip T. Fitzgerald (3 shared filings) and 9 others.

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

All 6 issuers belong to the sponsor group Paladin (7 issuers, $552.2M reported sold, 2009–2017).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Paladin has 7 companies on file and $552.2M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 3 court cases matching the name, 1 bankruptcy case matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 4 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.

We compared 6 public filings for Frederick Gortner and found 1 difference: 5 offerings have no amendment in the last 12 months and may still be open.

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

1 difference found between the filings for Frederick Gortner (compared 6 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Sep 17, 2008 – Oct 14, 2015

5 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 — Paladin Realty Latin America Investors V, LP (latest filing Oct 14, 2015) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Paladin Realty Latin America Investors IV-CI, LP (latest filing Feb 26, 2013) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Paladin Realty Brazil Investors III (Del), LP (latest filing May 17, 2011) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Paladin Realty Brazil Investors III, LP (latest filing Jan 7, 2011) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — PALADIN REALTY LATIN AMERICA INVESTORS III LP (latest filing Sep 29, 2009)

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

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.

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.
