The short version

Lee Hillman is listed as a director on 12 SEC Form D filings by 4 issuers between Nov 2018 and Jan 2025: Benefit Street Partners Multifamily Trust, Inc. (New York, NY — reits and finance — 2020–2023; $177.5M reported sold to 625 investors), Franklin BSP Capital Corp (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2020–2021; $156.1M reported sold to 1,519 investors), Business Development Corp of America (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2018–2020; $90M reported sold to 4 investors) and Franklin BSP Real Estate Debt BDC (New York, NY — pooled investment fund — 2024–2025; $125K reported sold to 125 investors).

What this means A repeat sponsor — 4 separate companies raised money with this person listed as director, over about 7 years. Across those companies the filings report $423.7M sold in total.

Listed alongside RICHARD J. BYRNE (12 shared filings), JEROME BAGLIEN (7 shared filings), Leslie D. Michelson (7 shared filings), Buford H. Ortale (5 shared filings), DENNIS M. SCHANEY (5 shared filings) and 12 others.

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

3 of the issuers belong to the sponsor group Benefit Street (82 issuers, $14.97B reported sold, 2009–2026).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Benefit Street has 82 companies on file and $14.97B 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 (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) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 12 public filings for Lee Hillman and found 10 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: Amount sold went down between filings; Investor count went down between filings; 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 · Jan 6, 2022 – Nov 28, 2022

Bankruptcy case: 96 Wythe Acquisition LLC v. Benefit Street Partners Realty Operating Partnersh — filed Jan 6, 2022

United States Bankruptcy Court, S.D. New York docket "96 Wythe Acquisition LLC v. Benefit Street Partners Realty Operating Partnersh" filed Jan 6, 2022, closed Nov 28, 2022. Benefit Street Partners Multifamily Trust, Inc. (related issuer) is listed as Party ("96 Wythe Acquisition LLC v. Benefit Street Partners Realty Operating Partnersh"). Our match estimate: 60%.

What this means A bankruptcy filing was found. Many are old or personal and have nothing to do with the deal — but ask what it was and when it closed.

Amount sold went down between filings — Benefit Street Partners Multifamily Trust, Inc.

The Nov 19, 2019 filing says $177,484,342 sold; the Feb 28, 2020 Form D/A says $106,141,674 sold — $71,342,668 less.

What this means Amounts sold normally only go up as a raise continues. A drop can mean investors were refunded, a figure was corrected, or an earlier number was wrong. Ask the sponsor which it was.

The Feb 28, 2020 filing reports 625 investors; the Mar 1, 2021 Form D/A reports 451 investors.

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Benefit Street Partners Multifamily Trust, Inc. (latest filing Mar 23, 2023)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Mar 23, 2023 (first sale Feb 28, 2013). It reports $148,764,709 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.

Same name, different state: "Lee Hillman" (IL) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is NY. A separate record, "Lee Hillman" with address state IL, is listed on 3 filings — most recently by Professional Diversity Network, Inc. (Jan 27, 2017). The two records do not overlap in time: this page runs Feb 28, 2020 to Jan 17, 2025; the other runs Jul 11, 2016 to Jan 27, 2017.

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.

What this means A registered agent's address is a mailbox, not where the team works. Ask where the business actually operates.

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 Lee Hillman on a Form D, newest first. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment.

"Similar" = offerings in the same industry claiming the same exemption, filed in the last 5 years: Pooled Investment Fund / 506(b) (83,801 filings); ranges are the middle half (25th–75th percentile). Computed by PartnerFacts from SEC EDGAR Form D data as of Oct 23, 2026, 5:45 PM ET. Rows without a range: fewer than 30 comparable filings, or not a Rule 506 offering. No ranking or score.

Sources

Issuers are grouped when their Form D filings share related persons, a management entity or a business address (automatic match from the filings). "Listed" marks the issuers that name Lee Hillman.

Same business address

51 other issuers file from the same address (first 50 shown)

A shared address can mean the same team, a shared office building or a registered agent. It is a lead, not a conclusion.

Registrations and other filings

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 4 issuers this person is listed on appears in Form ADV (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026). A person is never an adviser firm; Form ADV is checked for the issuers and the management companies they are listed with.

Other offering types (Regulation A and Regulation Crowdfunding)

Searched SEC Regulation A Data Sets (Forms 1-A, 1-K, 1-Z; 2015 Q2 → 2026 Q3); SEC Crowdfunding Offerings Data Sets (Form C family; 2016 Q2 → 2026 Q3); EDGAR form index for 2026 Q3 → 2026 Q4 (51,358 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:41 PM ET) — nothing matched this name.

Property records none — individuals are not matched

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to Lee Hillman by design. Searched property records in Hillsborough County FL (Clerk recorded-document index Oct 14, 2026 to Oct 15, 2026 + FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Miami-Dade County FL (FL DOR 2026 ownership roll), Harris County TX (HCAD 2026 ownership roll), Dallas County TX (DCAD 2026 ownership roll), New York City ACRIS documents and PLUTO ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers, Cook County IL sale and ownership rows already retrieved for other issuers (814,874 records as of Oct 23, 2026, 8:59 PM ET) for the 4 issuers this person is listed on — nothing matched.

Public profiles and social

Websites and social links of the issuers Lee Hillman is listed on, as found in their SEC filings (Form C, Reg A, Form ADV, EDGAR profile) or on the sponsor's own site; none belongs to the person unless the sponsor's site says so. Checked Oct 24, 2026.
