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?
A Form D is the brief notice an issuer files with the SEC after a private placement's first sale; no amendment has followed this one, so the federal record has not been updated since 2022. 5 Rule 506(b) offerings cannot be generally advertised and are sold through existing relationships to accredited investors — those meeting SEC income or net-worth tests.

Common questions
- What happened to APEX South Creek?
- APEX South Creek is a Historical offering. Last Form D filed Nov 22, 2022.
- What does APEX South Creek, DST own?
- A single asset: Apex at South Creek, a 300-unit Class A garden-style apartment community at 3060 Southcreek Boulevard in southeast Orlando, Florida. Sponsor materials describe ten three-story buildings on roughly 24.85 acres with about 304,000 square feet of net rentable residential space, built in 2022. An asset management agreement filed with the SEC in November 2022 identifies the Trust as owner.
- Who operates the property?
- Apex South Creek Leaseco, LLC is the master tenant under a master lease with the Trust, and Book and Ladder, LLC is the property manager responsible for day-to-day operation, per the asset management agreement filed with the SEC. This is the standard DST structure: the trust holds title passively while an affiliated master tenant and manager handle leasing, staffing and operations.
- What was the "yield enhancement feature" Crew announced?
- On June 27, 2023, Crew Enterprises published a notice announcing an increase in the offering's stated yield enhancement — a sponsor-supported supplement to investor distributions for a defined period, in this case 24 months. Top1031 does not restate targeted or forward-looking rates. The actual terms, funding source and conditions would be described in the Trust's offering documents.
- Is there litigation involving this Trust?
- Plaintiff-side law firms have published investor-loss pages referencing APEX South Creek, DST and related Versity Investments litigation, including one dated November 1, 2025. Top1031 did not locate a primary court record — docket, complaint or judgment — naming APEX SOUTH CREEK, DST itself, so no allegation is stated here as fact. Investors should ask the sponsor and their own counsel directly.
- How much debt is on the property?
- The Form D does not disclose leverage. GrowthSpotter reported on December 23, 2022 that the buyer took a $45.9 million mortgage from Walker & Dunlop in connection with the acquisition of the property, which traded for $100 million on November 18, 2022. Loan maturity, extension options and the current balance are not established in any retrieved public record.
