Neither the Form D filings nor located public reporting identifies the specific buildings, their addresses, or when and from whom Ares assembled them. In its August 6, 2025 monthly recap, AltsWire described the offering as a portfolio spanning Florida. 3 No acquisition date, purchase price, or seller appears in any public record located as of September 14, 2026.

How was it financed, and what did it cost to sell?
The public filings do not say whether the Trust carries mortgage debt or holds the portfolio free of loans, and no lender is named. Debt level matters in an exchange, because a 1031 investor generally needs replacement property debt at least equal to what was paid off on the property sold.

Form D Item 15 and Item 16 amounts may be the issuer’s estimates; each percentage is Top1031’s arithmetic on two Form D figures. Item 16 can overlap Item 15, so Top1031 does not add them together. The issuer marked these amounts as an estimate.

Amounts, investor counts and minimums are as filed with the SEC on Form D. The change lines are Top1031’s arithmetic between consecutive filings; a new Form D notice starts a new count.
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.
Common questions
- What happened to AIREX Portfolio 9 DST?
- AIREX Portfolio 9 DST is a Historical offering. The last Form D, filed Mar 11, 2026, reports the offering fully sold.
- Does AIREX Portfolio 9 DST have a 721 UPREIT exit?
- The record lists a possible 721 exit for AIREX Portfolio 9 DST. The offering documents set whether and when it could happen. In a 721 exchange, or UPREIT, the DST’s property is contributed to a REIT’s operating partnership and investors receive operating-partnership units instead of cash.
- How a DST-to-721 UPREIT exit works
- What properties does this Trust actually own?
- The public record does not answer that. No located SEC filing or property record names the buildings, addresses, square footage, or seller. AltsWire's August 6, 2025 DST recap described the offering as a portfolio spanning Florida, which is independent reporting rather than a filed property list. The offering documents are where a prospective investor would find the schedule of properties.
- Why did the offering amount change between the two filings?
- The July 2, 2025 Form D reported an equity offering of $126,666,667 with nothing sold at that point. The March 11, 2026 amendment reported a smaller total offering equal to the amount actually placed. Sponsors routinely amend Form D to reflect final sizing; the amendment is a notice of what was sold, not a restatement of the deal's economics.
- Who was eligible to invest, and what was the minimum?
- The Trust reported the raise as a Rule 506(b) offering — a private placement sold to accredited investors without general advertising or public solicitation — with a $500,000 minimum investment. Accredited status generally means meeting SEC income or net-worth tests, verified or self-certified as the sponsor's documents require.
