The short version

James Berg is listed as an executive officer on 7 SEC Form D filings by 4 issuers between Nov 2013 and Dec 2018: Strategic Storage Growth Trust II, Inc. (Ladera Ranch, CA — reits and finance — 2018; $95.8M reported sold to 1,299 investors), Strategic Storage Operating Partnership, L.P. (Ladera Ranch, CA — reits and finance — 2013–2014; $2.35M reported sold to 30 investors), Strategic Student & Senior Housing Trust, Inc. (Ladera Ranch, CA — reits and finance — 2017; $2.03M reported sold to 28 investors) and SmartStop Asset Management, LLC (Ladera Ranch, CA — other real estate — 2016–2018).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 4 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer, over about 5 years. Across those companies the filings report $100.2M sold in total.

Listed alongside H. Michael Schwartz (7 shared filings), Michael S. McClure (7 shared filings), Wayne Johnson (7 shared filings), Ken Morrison (6 shared filings), Paula Mathews (6 shared filings) and 2 others.

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 4 issuers belong to the sponsor group Strategic Storage (18 issuers, $395M reported sold, 2009–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Strategic Storage has 18 companies on file and $395M 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) — 41 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 41 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 7 public filings for James Berg and found 7 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: James Berg is no longer listed on the Dec 20, 2019 amendment; 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

Worth asking · Dec 21, 2018 – Dec 20, 2019

James Berg is no longer listed on the Dec 20, 2019 amendment — Strategic Storage Growth Trust II, Inc.

James Berg appears on the Dec 21, 2018 Form D (executive officer) but not on the Dec 20, 2019 Form D/A for the same offering.

What this means People leave, and the issuer must list only current officers, directors and promoters. It is still worth asking why this person left and who replaced them.

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Strategic Student & Senior Housing Trust, Inc. (latest filing Aug 7, 2017)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Aug 7, 2017 (first sale Jul 12, 2017). It reports $2,027,300 sold of $108,790,000 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.

James Berg is written 2 different ways on the filings

listed as "James L. Berg" on 3 filings (from Nov 14, 2013), and "James Berg" on 4 filings (from Sep 14, 2016).

What this means Same person, written differently — a middle name or suffix left off, or spelled another way. It is normal, but check that the full legal name matches your subscription documents.

Note · May 14, 2026

Same name, different state: "James Berg" (IL) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is CA. A separate record, "James Berg" with address state IL, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by Track Group, Inc. (May 14, 2026). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Sep 14, 2016 to Apr 30, 2018; the other has one filing dated May 14, 2026.

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.

Minimum investment changed between filings — Strategic Storage Growth Trust II, Inc.

The Dec 21, 2018 filing lists a minimum of $15,000; the Dec 20, 2019 Form D/A lists $50,000.

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).

Deals 4

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