The short version

James A. Lash is listed as an executive officer on 5 SEC Form D filings by 3 issuers between Mar 2012 and Jun 2016: Elk Homes Partners LP (Rye, NY — residential — 2012–2013; $21.7M reported sold to 36 investors), Elk Homes Partners III LP (Rye, NY — residential — 2016; $2.7M reported sold to 4 investors) and Elk Homes Partners II LP (Rye, NY — residential — 2014; $1.5M reported sold to 3 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 3 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, over about 4 years. Across those companies the filings report $25.9M sold in total.

Listed alongside Gary D. Hirsch (5 shared filings).

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

All 3 issuers belong to the sponsor group Elk Homes (3 issuers, $25.9M reported sold, 2012–2016).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Elk Homes has 3 companies on file and $25.9M 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) — 11 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 11 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 5 public filings for James A. Lash and found 6 differences: Form D filed 17 days after the first sale; No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open; 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

6 differences found between the filings for James A. Lash (compared 5 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · May 13, 2014 – May 30, 2014

Form D filed 17 days after the first sale — Elk Homes Partners II LP

The filing says the first sale was May 13, 2014. The Form D was filed May 30, 2014 — 17 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 2 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 · Jun 8, 2016 – Jun 23, 2016

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Elk Homes Partners III LP (latest filing Jun 23, 2016)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jun 23, 2016 (first sale Jun 8, 2016). It reports $2,700,000 sold of $25,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Note · May 13, 2014 – May 30, 2014

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Elk Homes Partners II LP (latest filing May 30, 2014)

The latest filing for this offering is dated May 30, 2014 (first sale May 13, 2014). It reports $1,500,000 sold of $40,000,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Note · Jan 13, 2020

Same name, different state: "James A. Lash" (CT) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is NY. A separate record, "James A. Lash" with address state CT, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Bison Metals Technologies LLC (Jan 13, 2020). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Mar 8, 2012 to Jun 23, 2016; the other has one filing dated Jan 13, 2020.

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 · Mar 8, 2012 – Apr 18, 2012

Minimum investment changed between filings — Elk Homes Partners LP

The Mar 8, 2012 filing lists a minimum of $100,000; the Apr 18, 2012 Form D/A lists $75,000.

What this means A different minimum usually means the offering terms changed. Check which terms apply to you.

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).
