I don't see anything illegal about a corporation selling property to an individual. It looks shady because he has a massive stake in the corporation but I don't think it's illegal. Typically the buyer and seller are two separate entities but since he is a scammer he has forgone any business ethics to take advantage of gullible people.
You do have a lot of leeway when you run a fund (barring clear fraud or bad books) but remember, you also have to show that everything you are doing is in the best interest of the fund, or now you are in breach.
Making bad deals isn’t “illegal”, because it’s life - some people are good at what they do, some people suck.
But if you sell a massive property to yourself for $80, there’s no way to spin that you just made a bad deal in good faith
, and you also breach the “do what’s best for the people” line item because there’s no way to show that your $80 house off of the people’s $11m was a path to success for the fund lol
