The short version

JOHN GRAY is listed as an executive officer and promoter on 38 SEC Form D filings by 36 issuers between Jan 2019 and Apr 2022. Largest by amount reported sold: UPWARD AMERICA VENTURE LP (Miami, FL — pooled investment fund — 2020–2022; $1.48B reported sold to 7 investors), NORTH BLOCK SPRING STREET DEVELOPMENT LLC (Miami, FL — reits and finance — 2019; $123K reported sold to 123 investors), UPWARD AMERICA CENTRAL REIT, LP (Miami, FL — reits and finance — 2022; $63K reported sold to 125 investors), UPWARD AMERICA SOUTHEAST REIT, LP (Miami, FL — reits and finance — 2022; $63K reported sold to 125 investors), LMV II ELMHURST REIT, LP (Miami, FL — reits and finance — 2020; $62K reported sold to 124 investors) and 31 more (all listed below).

What this means That is a lot of deals — 36 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and promoter, over about 3 years. Across those companies the filings report $1.48B sold in total.

Listed alongside TODD FARRELL (33 shared filings) and RICK BECKWITT (5 shared filings).

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

The issuers belong to 2 sponsor groups: Lmv (113 issuers, $5.21M reported sold, 2016–2020) and Upward America (8 issuers, $1.89B reported sold, 2018–2026).

What this means This person is listed across more than one sponsor team; each group page shows that team's full track record.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 2 SEC releases, 2 state regulator orders, 26 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 30 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 38 public filings for JOHN GRAY and found 8 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: IL securities regulator order of prohibition naming JOHN GRAY (Dec 16, 2013); IL securities regulator temporary order of prohibition naming JOHN GRAY (Apr 5, 2013); 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.

Note · Dec 16, 2020 – Apr 18, 2022

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — UPWARD AMERICA VENTURE LP (latest filing Apr 18, 2022)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Apr 18, 2022 (first sale Dec 16, 2020). It reports $1,475,000,000 sold of an indefinite amount 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.

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 36
