iFunding pays out $150,000 to settle lawsuit

Real estate crowdfunding platform iFunding is paying $150,000 to settle a lawsuit brought against it by a shareholder.

The company agreed to pay the cash to Micheal J Turner who reportedly sought to dissolve the company. In return for the payments Turner will release the company and its founder William Skelley from any further claims.

Truner reportedly made a $100,000 investment in the firm in 2012 for a 20% ownership stake. However, he says he was frozen out of decision making and as a result sought damages. The court also ordered to iFunding to buy back his stake in the business.

Earlier in the year iFunding settled a fraud lawsuit brought against it by CapStack Partners, which sought $585,000 for damages. The case was reportedly settled quickly for a small amount.
