Wayne Hast: $240K Complaint Against Realta Advisor

Plano, Texas financial advisor Wayne Hast (CRD# 6382578) recently received an investor complaint alleging that his conduct resulted in six-figure damages. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority records show that he is registered as a broker with Realta Equities and an investment advisor with Crescent Advisor Group, doing business as Hast Financial Group.

Mr. Hast’s BrokerCheck report discloses one investor complaint. Filed in November 2025, it alleges that as a representative of Realta Equities and Titan Securities, he failed to properly supervise and ensure compliance with “internal policy limited customer allocations to more than 35% in alternative investments.” The pending complaint alleges damages of $240,000.

For reference, “over-concentration,” also known as lack of diversification, is described by FINRA’s investor resources as akin to putting too many eggs in one basket. To avoid the risks of over-concentration, FINRA recommends investors diversify across and within major asset classes, regularly rebalance their portfolios, closely examine the underlying stocks or bonds in the mutual funds and exchange-traded funds in their portfolios, and keep vigilant track of their investments’ liquidity.

According to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Wayne Hast holds 11 years of securities industry experience. Based in Plano, Texas, he has been registered as a broker with Realta Equities since 2023 and an investment advisor with Crescent Advisor Group since 2022. He was previously registered with Titan Securities in Rowlett, Texas from 2014 until 2023. His credentials include the passage of three securities industry qualifying exams: the Securities Industry Essentials Examination, or SIE; the Uniform Combined State Law Examination, or Series 66; and the General Securities Representative Examination, or Series 7. He is licensed in California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and Wyoming.
