Erez Law is currently investigating Cabin Securities, Inc. broker William Candler (CRD# 2802438), who is accused of real estate investment loss options. He has been registered with JCC Capital Markets, LLC in Overland Park, Kansas, since 2016, Cabin Securities, Inc. in Overland Park, Kansas, since 2006, and Cabin Advisors, LLC in Overland Park, Kansas, since 2022.
In May 2015, FINRA sanctioned him to pay a $2,500 civil and administrative penalty and fine and suspended him for 10 days after FINRA found that he “consented to the sanctions and to the entry of findings that as his member firm’s supervisory principal he failed to conduct reasonable due diligence regarding a private placement that the firm sold directly to retail investors.” The FINRA findings stated that “the firm lacked a reasonable basis to believe that the private placement was suitable for any investor. The offering was later discovered to be a Ponzi scheme and customers who purchased interests in it lost their collective investment principal of approximately $560,000.” FINRA found that he failed to retain and review business-related correspondence. FINRA found that the firm’s Written Supervisory Procedures (WSPs) “did not include appropriate provisions to ensure that its standards regarding communications with the public were implemented and followed and Candler did not enforce WSPs that required it to preserve all business email.”
William Candler Customer Complaints
He has been the subject of two customer complaints in 2025, according to his CRD report:
December 2025. “Candler was the named respondent of the customer complaint regarding a reg D private placement. The complaint alleges the following causes of action; fraud, misrepresentation, omissions of material facts, unsuitable recommendations, breech of contract, and breach of fiduciary duty.” The customer is seeking $3,400,000 in damages, and the case is currently pending. The complaint was regarding real estate investment loss options, and it took place while he was registered with Cabin Securities, Inc.
Pursuant to FINRA Rules, member firms are responsible for supervising a broker’s activities during the time the broker is registered with the firm. Therefore, Cabin Securities, Inc. may be liable for investment or other losses suffered by William Candler’s customers.
