Common questions
What happened to Cove Essential Net Lease Industrial 87 DST?
Top1031 lists Cove Essential Net Lease Industrial 87 DST as historical. It is no longer raising money.
Where does Top1031 get the data for Cove Essential Net Lease Industrial 87 DST?
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 this Trust?
Trade coverage dated July 3, 2025 reported the Offering fully subscribed, and Cove's own offering page still labeled it fully subscribed as of August 19, 2026. The most recent Form D amendment on record, filed May 22, 2025, is a dated snapshot that still showed an unsold balance, and the sales figures shown on this page come from that filing. Anything available now would be sponsor-held or secondary-market interests, which only the sponsor or a selling broker-dealer can confirm.
What does "debt-free" mean for my 1031 exchange?
The Trust holds the property with no mortgage, so there is no loan to mature, refinance or default on, and no lender consent needed to sell. It also means the Trust passes through no replacement debt. If your relinquished property carried a mortgage you need to match to avoid boot, a debt-free DST does not supply it, and your tax adviser should confirm how that affects your exchange.
Who is the tenant, and what happens if it leaves?
FedEx Ground is the sole tenant of the Sierra Vista, Arizona building; the sponsor's May 20, 2025 acquisition release described the facility as 100% occupied. Cove states FedEx Ground signed an early lease extension, but no located source gives the commencement date, the expiration or the rent. With one tenant, all rent depends on that lease; because there is no mortgage, a vacancy would not trigger a lender default, but it would interrupt rent while the Trust carried taxes, insurance and upkeep. The PPM — the private placement memorandum that governs the offering — contains the lease abstract and risk factors.
Why do the two SEC filings show different offering amounts?
The initial Form D filed February 14, 2025 reported $58,832,299 offered with no sales; the amendment filed May 22, 2025 reported a total offering amount roughly one-tenth that size along with the first sales figures. No filing explains the change, so both are presented as filed. The PPM and subscription documents govern the actual size of the Offering.
What is the minimum investment?
Two source-dated numbers exist and they do not agree. Cove's offering page listed a $100,000 minimum when checked on August 19, 2026, while the Form D/A filed May 22, 2025 reported a $1,000 minimum — a figure many DST sponsors state on the SEC form regardless of the practical subscription minimum. Neither has been reconciled in a public document; the sponsor or the selling broker-dealer can state which applies.
Could this Trust end in a REIT rollup?
The record here flags no planned 721/UPREIT conversion — that is, contributing property interests to a REIT's operating partnership in exchange for units — and the sponsor's stated model is a property sale with proceeds distributed so investors can take cash or roll into another exchange. The PPM and trust agreement set out the exit mechanics, any UPREIT election and the trustee's authority to sell.
