How we work out how much has sold

We divide the amount the sponsor reports sold by the offering size in its latest SEC filing, filed Jan 12, 2026.

  • The sponsor reports these amounts itself, and can amend them later.
  • A filing can be behind what has actually sold. It does not confirm that interests are still available.
  • The amount left to sell is the offering size minus the amount sold.

What does Village Towers own?

How is it financed, and what did it cost to sell?

The Trust owns the complex subject to a mortgage, so the lender's claim ranks ahead of investor equity. The sponsor's memorandum describes the acquisition loan as interest-only, meaning nothing amortizes and the full principal stands due at maturity. 1 The Trust also funds a capped tenant-improvement and leasing-commission allowance. 2

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 record opens with an original Form D — the brief SEC notice a private offering files instead of registering its securities — followed by amendments that each refreshed the equity placed to date while leaving the offering size unchanged. Each Form D states its figures as of its own filing date, not as a live balance.

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

Is Village Towers an active offering?
Village Towers is an Active offering: its latest Form D was filed Jan 12, 2026. A Form D filing does not by itself confirm that interests are still available; the sponsor or a registered representative can confirm what is open.
What property does the Trust own, and how full is it?
Village Towers, a Class A office complex with ground-floor retail on Katy Freeway in Houston, built in 2019. This listing records roughly 350,000 square feet across two six-story towers; a distributor's offering summary describes Tower I, Tower II and a plaza building on two contiguous parcels totaling approximately 325,557 rentable square feet and reports the project about 94% leased at acquisition. The same distributor, citing a December 2025 offering update, reports the towers and plaza 99.64% leased as of October 1, 2025 — a leased-space figure on that date, not verified current physical occupancy. The rent roll in the offering documents controls.
Who are the tenants, and what does the master lease mean for me?
This listing names Spur Energy, 2nd.MD, Prologis and Masraff's among occupants. A distributor's offering summary additionally names EnCap Investments, Innovation Specialists (2ND.MD), SEP Permian, Moody National Realty Company and Veritex Community Bank, and states that the Trust leased the project to an affiliated master tenant under a long-term master lease. In that structure, investor income arrives through a sponsor-related entity whose own performance matters, rather than directly from the building's tenants. The offering documents set out the actual lease terms.
Is there debt on the property, and what are its terms?
Yes. The sponsor's offering materials state equity of $136,250,000 and debt of $74,500,000, for a total acquisition basis of $210,750,000, and calculate that loan at approximately 37.27% of a $199,901,945 purchase-price measure that excludes operating reserves. The placement memorandum describes the loan as interest-only with a ten-year term and states a 5.09% rate after adjustment for a hedge agreement. Interest-only means nothing amortizes, so the full principal stands at maturity and must be repaid, refinanced or resolved through a sale. The loan documents summarized in the offering documents control.
What does it mean that the property was bought from sponsor affiliates?
The placement memorandum states the Trust acquired Village Towers on November 29, 2022 from Moody National HQ, LLC and Moody National HQ II, LLC, both affiliated sellers. In a related-party purchase, price and terms are not negotiated with an unrelated third party, and the sponsor's own materials use a $199,901,945 purchase-price measure for the project. The conflicts-of-interest and valuation sections of the offering documents are where the pricing, appraisals and affiliate roles are disclosed; read them against the independent appraisal work the offering documents describe.
There is a law firm page about this DST — what is it?
The White Law Group published a page dated May 16, 2025 titled "Moody Village Towers DST: Lawsuit Investigation," saying it was investigating broker-dealer sales practices related to the offering and citing an offering size of approximately $136.2 million. It names no complaint, case number, docket or regulatory order involving the Trust; it is an attorney solicitation page, not an adjudicated finding. The research run on October 4, 2026 established no primary-record evidence of a trust-specific default, foreclosure, lawsuit or completed sale of the property.
