What does the paperwork say?
ARCTRUST opened the SEC file for this Trust and never returned to it, so no later notice reported how the raise progressed.4 The private-placement exemption used here bars general advertising, limiting the offering to accredited investors — those meeting SEC income or net-worth tests — reached through existing relationships.

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 Lowe's Home Improvement Center?
Top1031 lists Lowe's Home Improvement Center as historical. It is no longer raising money.
Where does Top1031 get the data for Lowe's Home Improvement Center?
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.
Can I still invest in ARCTRUST Vestal Home Improvement DST?
No. ARCTRUST Private Capital lists this Trust on its closed-to-new-investments page, and the sponsor's investments page describes it as a 2022-present offering. The SEC file contains only the original Form D notice from August 17, 2022, with no amendment reporting a final result.
What property does the Trust own?
A single-tenant Lowe's home improvement store in Vestal, New York. Lowe's store locator lists the address as 225 Sycamore Rd., Vestal, NY 13850 and showed the store open as of August 24, 2026. AltsWire's directory describes the parcel as 14.48 acres.
Who is the tenant and how long is the lease?
Lowe's Inc. occupies the whole building. AltsWire's directory entry reports the lease started in 1996, was extended in 2021, includes rent increases every five years, and had approximately 11.5 years of base term remaining plus renewal options at the time of that listing. The Trust depends entirely on this one tenant.
Is the Trust leveraged, and who is the lender?
Unknown from public sources. The Form D does not disclose loan terms, and no deed, mortgage record, or sponsor disclosure establishing debt, loan-to-value, or a lender was located for this Trust. An investor would need the private placement memorandum (PPM) — the sponsor's full offering document — to see the financing.
What was the minimum investment?
The Form D filed August 17, 2022 reported a $50,000 minimum outside investment for this offering. That figure comes from the SEC notice filing, not from a current sponsor document.
Can this Trust roll into a REIT through a 721/UPREIT exit?
The record shows no 721/UPREIT feature — the structure in which DST interests are contributed to a REIT's operating partnership in exchange for units. Nothing in the SEC filing or sponsor materials reviewed describes a REIT conversion path for this Trust.
