The short version

Spring Arbor Group, LLC is a management entity listed as an executive officer on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Dec 2025: Freedom Partners No. 3, LLC (West Bloomfield, MI — pooled investment fund — 2025; $9.18M reported sold to 9 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Dec 2025. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

Listed alongside Gregory A. Schupra (1 shared filing) and Keith Dabbs (1 shared filing).

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

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) — 3 court cases matching the name, 4 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 7 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 1 public filing for Spring Arbor Group, LLC and found 3 differences: Bankruptcy case: Allard v. Spring Arbor Distribution Co; Bankruptcy case: Spring Arbor Lumber Company v. Neubecker; 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 · Oct 15, 2025 – Dec 10, 2025

Form D filed 56 days after the first sale — Freedom Partners No. 3, LLC

The filing says the first sale was Oct 15, 2025. The Form D was filed Dec 10, 2025 — 56 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 41 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.

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.
