What exactly is the property?
The Trust holds a portfolio of single-tenant retail buildings leased on a net basis, assembled by AEI Capital rather than one named asset.

Who is the tenant, and what's the lease?
Neither the Form D filings nor any public source located names the tenants, lease terms, or expiration dates behind this portfolio. Net lease generally means the tenant, not the landlord, carries taxes, insurance, and maintenance — but the specifics live only in the private placement memorandum (PPM), the offering document given to prospective investors.

A Form D is the notice a sponsor files when it starts raising money. A Form D filing does not mean the SEC approved, endorsed, or verified the offering.
DST interests are illiquid private securities. You may lose some or all of your investment. Distributions, tax treatment, and exit timing are not guaranteed. Review the current Private Placement Memorandum before investing.
Common questions
What happened to AEI Net Lease Portfolio 20?
Top1031 lists AEI Net Lease Portfolio 20 as historical. It is no longer raising money.
Where does Top1031 get the data for AEI Net Lease Portfolio 20?
Top1031 builds this record from the sponsor’s own SEC filings and cited sponsor disclosures. Filings can lag what is happening now. A Form D filing does not mean the SEC approved, endorsed, or verified the offering.
What does AEI Net Lease Portfolio 20 DST actually own?
A portfolio of single-tenant, net-leased retail properties assembled by AEI Capital. The SEC Form D filings do not list the individual buildings, and as of August 20, 2026 no public source located a property-by-property address or tenant list. The private placement memorandum is where those details are disclosed.
Who are the tenants and what are the lease terms?
Not established in the public record. The Form D notices name no tenants, rents, lease structures, or expiration dates, and no third-party source reviewed as of August 20, 2026 supplied them. Anyone evaluating the Trust would need the sponsor's offering documents for tenant identities and lease terms.
Is this Trust still open to new investors?
The most recent Form D amendment on record was filed January 26, 2023, and the sales figures shown on this page reflect that filing. Because Form D updates are periodic rather than continuous, current availability has to be confirmed directly with AEI Capital or a registered representative.
What do 'DST' and 'Rule 506(b)' mean here?
A Delaware statutory trust (DST) holds real estate and issues beneficial interests that the IRS can treat as like-kind replacement property in a 1031 exchange. Rule 506(b) is the private-placement exemption that permits sales to accredited investors without general advertising or public solicitation.
What is the minimum investment?
The Form D filings report a minimum outside investment of $50,000. Sponsors and selling broker-dealers can apply higher minimums or exchange-specific requirements, so the operative figure for a given investor is the one stated in the offering documents.
Could this Trust convert into a REIT through a 721 exchange?
The record does not indicate a 721/UPREIT exit — the structure in which DST interests are later contributed to an operating partnership for REIT units. This Trust is recorded as not converting to a REIT, so investors would look to a property sale rather than a REIT roll-up as the exit path.
