Who is the tenant, and what's the lease?
The holdings are classified as net-lease industrial serving energy services, but no public filing names a tenant or states a lease term.

What does the paperwork say?
No amendment has followed the original notice, so the only sales figures in the public record are those in that first snapshot. The first sale occurred on August 21, 2025, roughly a month before that notice was filed.1 The exemption claimed permits public advertising of the offering provided the sponsor verifies every buyer's accredited status.

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 ERP 1031 Industrial Portfolio III still raising money?
Top1031 lists ERP 1031 Industrial Portfolio III 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 ERP 1031 Industrial Portfolio III?
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?
ERP 1031 announced on January 23, 2026 that the Trust was fully subscribed, raising $29.65 million of equity from accredited investors. No Form D amendment has been filed since the original September 18, 2025 notice, so the sponsor's announcement is the only report of the final outcome. Anyone approached about units today should ask the sponsor directly whether any remain.
What does the Trust actually own?
Two industrial properties totaling roughly 104,784 square feet, reported in Midland, Texas, in the Permian Basin, classified as net-lease industrial serving energy services. The Form D does not identify the specific buildings, their addresses or their tenants — those appear only in the private placement memorandum, or PPM, the sponsor's full offering document.
What does Rule 506(c) mean for me as an investor?
506(c) is the private-placement exemption that permits general solicitation — public advertising, press releases, web listings — in exchange for the issuer verifying that every purchaser is an accredited investor. Practically, you will be asked for third-party documentation of income or net worth rather than simply self-certifying.
Could this end in a 721/UPREIT roll-up?
Top1031's record for this Trust shows no 721/UPREIT exit path — that is, no structure allowing investors to contribute their interests to a REIT's operating partnership in exchange for units. Whatever exit the offering documents contemplate should be confirmed in the PPM.
How much debt does the Trust use?
Leverage is not disclosed in the public record for this Trust. The single Form D covers the equity offering only and says nothing about mortgage financing, so whether this is an all-cash or leveraged DST — and on what terms — must be confirmed in the PPM and the loan documents.
Has ERP 1031 done offerings like this before?
Yes. AltsWire reported that ERP's first industrial DST, a $44 million Permian Basin offering, was fully subscribed as of September 26, 2024, and that a second Permian-focused DST was fully subscribed as of July 23, 2025. The sponsor said on January 23, 2026 that it was launching a fourth DST alongside the close of this one.
