What exactly is the property?
Bonaventure developed the waterfront community in 2013 and has owned and managed it ever since, so the operating record behind the Trust is the sponsor's own.1 Its offering page reports roughly 95% average occupancy since 2014, about 96% current occupancy and $1,879 average rent, with the occupancy figures stated as of September 30, 2025.1 No purchase price or deed for the transfer into the Trust appears in public sources.

- 183 units
Who is the tenant, and what's the lease?
There is no single corporate tenant: income comes from individual resident leases across the apartment community, so ordinary turnover rather than one expiration date drives revenue. No master lease, rent roll or lease schedule appears in public sources; those mechanics sit in the PPM, the offering's governing disclosure document.
How are sales going?
These are the sponsor’s own numbers. They can lag what has actually sold, and they do not confirm that interests are still available.

How is it financed, and what does it pay?
Mortgage debt sits alongside investor equity here — the structure that lets an exchanger replace debt carried on a relinquished property. Bonaventure reports fixed-rate financing and total capitalization of about $50.1 million, but names no lender, and no loan balance or maturity appears in public sources.1

Who's behind it?
Bonaventure is a Virginia apartment developer and operator active in the Hampton Roads market; at Promenade Pointe it both built the community and still runs it.1 The Form D names Bonaventure MIT Operating Partnership LP as sponsor and operating partnership, with Bonaventure Holdings as an affiliate.3 A 721/UPREIT exit would contribute the property to that partnership in exchange for units rather than cash. The firm broke ground on Attain at Newtown, a 320-unit Norfolk project, on July 13, 2026.

What does the paperwork say?
No amendment has followed the original notice, so the filing record still shows a raise in progress while Bonaventure has announced the offering closed.2 The Form D records a first sale on January 6, 2026, and the exemption used permits general advertising provided each buyer's accredited status is verified rather than self-certified.3

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
Is Promenade Pointe still raising money?
Top1031 lists Promenade Pointe as active because the sponsor is still filing with the SEC. That does not confirm that interests remain available.
Where does Top1031 get the data for Promenade Pointe?
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 Promenade Pointe DST?
Bonaventure announced on June 29, 2026 that the Trust was fully subscribed and closed. The SEC file still contains only the original January 21, 2026 Form D, with no closing amendment, so the public filing record lags the sponsor's announcement. Current availability would have to be confirmed with the sponsor or a selling broker-dealer.
How much did the Trust raise?
Bonaventure reported on June 29, 2026 that Promenade Pointe DST closed with $20.1 million of equity from 45 investors, part of more than $54 million raised across this Trust and Messenger Place DST. At the January 8, 2026 launch the sponsor described roughly $50.1 million of total capitalization, including about $20.1 million of investor equity. The Form D reported a $100,000 minimum investment.
Who is the tenant?
There is no single tenant. Promenade Pointe is a 183-unit apartment community, so revenue comes from individual residents on their own leases and vacancy is managed unit by unit. No master lease, rent roll, lease schedule or property-management agreement appears in public sources, so the PPM — the private placement memorandum, the offering's governing disclosure document — is where those mechanics and expense responsibilities are set out.
Is the sponsor also the developer?
Yes. Bonaventure developed Promenade Pointe in 2013 and has been the property's owner and operator since inception. That differs from DSTs where a sponsor buys a stabilized building shortly before the offering: here the operating record presented is the sponsor's own at the same asset. No deed or purchase price for the transfer into the Trust appears in public records.
What does the 721/UPREIT option mean here?
A 721 exchange, sometimes called an UPREIT, lets a DST's property be contributed to a REIT's operating partnership in exchange for partnership units instead of cash. The Form D names Bonaventure MIT Operating Partnership LP as both sponsor and operating partnership, and sponsor materials describe 721 optionality into that platform. The PPM sets out who controls the decision, its timing, how units would be valued, and what happens to an investor's tax deferral afterward.
What do the public filings not tell me?
The Form D is an issuer-filed notice the SEC does not review for accuracy. It reports a January 6, 2026 first sale but does not name the lender, state loan terms, describe a hold period, or explain the 721 exit mechanics, and no amendment reflects the June 2026 close. Occupancy and average-rent figures come from the sponsor, are described as unaudited, and are stated as of September 30, 2025. No deed, loan document or audited operating statement was located in public sources; those items live in the private placement memorandum and its exhibits.
