Common questions
- What happened to The Station at Clift Farm?
- The Station at Clift Farm is a Historical offering. Last Form D filed Nov 1, 2023.
- What exactly does an investor own here?
- A beneficial interest in CX Station at Clift Farm, DST, a Delaware statutory trust holding The Station at Clift Farm in Madison, Alabama. A DST interest is treated as direct ownership of real property for Section 1031 purposes, so it can serve as replacement property in an exchange. Investors are passive: the trust's manager and signatory trustee, CX Station at Clift Farm Manager, LLC, controls operations, and beneficiaries cannot direct the asset.
- Does this Trust convert into a REIT through a 721 exchange?
- The record shows no REIT conversion feature. A 721 or UPREIT exit is a structure where DST interests are later contributed to a REIT operating partnership in exchange for OP units; this Trust is not flagged for that path in the data on file. The exit route would come from the offering documents and trust agreement.
- What is not disclosed in the public record?
- The Form D filings do not state the purchase price, the loan amount or lender, loan-to-value, distribution rate, or projected hold period. Those items live in the offering documents, not in SEC Form D.
- Was the property stabilized when the sponsor bought it?
- No. Cushman & Wakefield, which arranged the sale, reported on January 27, 2022 that the 315-unit property closed pre-stabilized at over 40% leased, having been completed in 2021. Lease-up risk at acquisition differs from buying a fully occupied asset; how the property performed afterward is not established in the public record reviewed.
