The short version

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

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Redwood (2 issuers, $16.6M reported sold, 2016–2022).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Redwood has 2 companies on file and $16.6M 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 2 public filings for Michael Rad and found 4 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: 1515% of the money raised went to insiders; 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 found between the filings for Michael Rad — 1 worth asking about (compared 2 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Dec 29, 2016

1515% of the money raised went to insiders — Redwood Place, LLC

The Dec 29, 2016 Form D reports $250,000 sold and $3,788,198 of the proceeds used for payments to officers, directors or promoters. Issuer's note: "Repayment of a short term loan".

What this means The filing reports how much of the money raised was paid to insiders. Over 10% is high for most deals. Ask what it paid for.

Note · Dec 29, 2016

Michael Rad appears on 1 deal that stopped filing before reaching its target

Redwood Place, LLC (last filing Dec 29, 2016; $250,000 sold of $3,925,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.

Note · Dec 10, 2016 – Dec 29, 2016

Form D filed 19 days after the first sale — Redwood Place, LLC

The filing says the first sale was Dec 10, 2016. The Form D was filed Dec 29, 2016 — 19 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 4 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.

Note · Dec 10, 2016 – Dec 29, 2016

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Redwood Place, LLC (latest filing Dec 29, 2016)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Dec 29, 2016 (first sale Dec 10, 2016). It reports $250,000 sold of $3,925,000 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.

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.

5. Money to insiders

0 of 2 offerings report sales commissions; 0 report finder's fees; 1 reports proceeds to related persons totalling $3,788,198.

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).
