The Form D names no property. It describes only a Delaware business trust with a San Francisco principal address, and no later filing adds detail. 1 Separately, Hamilton Zanze reported closing on Echelon at Odenton, a 244-unit Class-A apartment community in Odenton, Maryland, on June 28, 2022. 4 No reviewed public source connects that purchase to HZ Echelon DST, so the Trust's asset remains unconfirmed in the public record.

What does the SEC record show?
Rule 506(b) means the Trust could be offered privately, without public advertising, to accredited investors — people meeting SEC income or net-worth tests. Only the original notice sits on file: no amendment, no termination notice, and no closing filing has followed, so the record shows no confirmed end to the raise. 1

Common questions
- What happened to HZ Echelon DST?
- HZ Echelon DST is a Historical offering. Last Form D filed Aug 26, 2022.
- What property does HZ Echelon DST own?
- The public record does not say. The Trust's only SEC filing, a Form D dated August 26, 2022, identifies HZ Echelon DST as a Delaware business trust and gives a San Francisco principal address, but names no property, address, or asset type. Hamilton Zanze separately reported buying Echelon at Odenton, a 244-unit apartment community in Odenton, Maryland, that closed June 28, 2022, and no reviewed source ties that purchase to this Trust. Anyone evaluating the offering would need the offering documents to confirm the asset.
- How large was the offering, and what was the minimum?
- The Form D filed August 26, 2022 reported a total offering amount of $63,626,000 and a minimum investment of $25,000 per investor. The same filing stated the offering was not intended to last more than one year and reported a first sale date of August 4, 2022.
- Does the Trust use leverage?
- Unknown from public sources. The Form D discloses no lender, loan amount, or loan-to-value figure, and no later filing addresses debt. It did report $331,728 in financing fees among proceeds paid to affiliated parties, which the filing does not explain further.
- What is the law-firm page that mentions HZ Echelon DST?
- On May 15, 2025, The White Law Group published a page naming HZ Echelon DST while soliciting investors about potential claims and FINRA arbitration against selling brokers. The page identifies no court case, docket number, filed complaint, court order, or regulatory enforcement action, and no primary litigation record surfaced in research. It is an attorney advertisement seeking clients, not a finding of wrongdoing by anyone.
- Can this Trust convert into a REIT through a 721 exchange?
- Nothing in the record indicates a 721/UPREIT exit — the arrangement in which a DST's property is contributed to a REIT's operating partnership in exchange for units. The available data records no such conversion feature for this Trust.
