Form D Item 15 and Item 16 amounts may be the issuer’s estimates; each percentage is Top1031’s arithmetic on two Form D figures. Item 16 can overlap Item 15, so Top1031 does not add them together. The issuer marked these amounts as an estimate.

What does the SEC record show?
The Trust noticed its offering to the SEC in the spring of 2025 and amended that notice in the fall, lowering the stated offering amount from roughly $209.6 million and reporting the raise finished. Interests were offered privately to accredited investors — those meeting SEC income or net-worth tests — without public advertising.

Amounts, investor counts and minimums are as filed with the SEC on Form D. The change lines are Top1031’s arithmetic between consecutive filings; a new Form D notice starts a new count.
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.
Common questions
- What happened to Georgia International Trade Center?
- Georgia International Trade Center is a Historical offering. Sold Oct 2025, as reported by Hines.
- Who occupies the buildings?
- As of June 30, 2026, Hines reported the property fully leased and identified Lowe's, the home-improvement retailer, and Armstrong Logistic, a warehousing and logistics provider, as major tenants. The public record does not disclose the individual lease terms, rent structures, or expiration dates.
- Is the Trust leveraged?
- The public record does not say. Neither the Form D filings for HREX 7, DST nor Hines' published materials disclose a property-level loan, loan-to-value figure, or lender for this Trust. Portfolio-level debt figures reported by Hines Global Income Trust describe that affiliate's whole portfolio, not this Trust.
- What was the minimum investment?
- Both Form D filings on record state a minimum outside investment of $250,000. That threshold applied while the offering was open; the Trust is now closed to new investors.
- Where exactly is the property?
- The offering record lists 50 Park of Commerce Way, Savannah, Georgia. Hines Global Income Trust's filed property table places the same asset in Rincon, Georgia, a location within the Savannah industrial market near the port. Both descriptions refer to the same two-building property.
- Could this Trust convert into a REIT interest?
- The filing record for this Trust does not indicate a 721/UPREIT exit — the structure in which a DST's property is contributed to a REIT's operating partnership in exchange for OP units. The property was sourced by Hines Global Income Trust and held through that REIT's Delaware statutory trust program as of December 31, 2025, but no conversion mechanism is stated in the record.
