Tenant and lease terms are not in the SEC filings or cited sources.

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

This is a leveraged trust: mortgage debt sits on the property, so investor equity funded only part of the capital stack and the loan is serviced from tenant rent. 1031Analysis reports the debt was placed with Wells Fargo Bank and split between a senior loan and a smaller subordinate piece. 6

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.

What does the SEC record show?

The trust filed its initial Form D — the short notice an issuer files for an exempt private offering — in 2016 and amended it repeatedly over the next three years, each amendment restating the amount sold and the investor count. The SEC's EDGAR index shows no later amendment for this CIK. 9

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 Verizon Headquarters?
Verizon Headquarters is a Historical offering. Last Form D filed Feb 14, 2019.
What property does this trust hold?
Verizon's operational headquarters campus in Basking Ridge, New Jersey, at One Verizon Way — described by the offering page as seven buildings totaling about 1.4 million square feet. Verizon sold and leased back the complex in May 2015 in a deal reported at $650 million and remained the occupant.
Who is the tenant and what does the lease look like?
Verizon. 1031Analysis reports a 20-year lease that began in 2015 with 25 years of extension options in five-year segments, written triple-net to the trust — meaning the tenant, not the trust, pays property taxes, insurance and maintenance — and guaranteed by Verizon Communications. The same source reports the tenant holds a right of first refusal to buy the property on a third-party buyer's terms.
Is the trust leveraged?
Yes. 1031Analysis reports property-level debt from Wells Fargo Bank, structured as a senior loan plus a smaller subordinate loan on a 20-year term amortizing over 30 years. Leverage means the loan must be serviced from rent before any cash reaches investors, and a lender default remedy can put the property at risk.
Has any outcome been reported for this trust?
No outcome reported yet. The public record contains no sale, refinancing, or liquidation notice for 295 BR Holdco DST, and the trust's SEC filing trail ends with the February 14, 2019 Form D amendment.
Could this trust convert into a REIT through a 721/UPREIT exit?
The record shows no 721/UPREIT exit path — that is, no provision to contribute the property to a REIT's operating partnership in exchange for OP units. Any exit mechanics would be governed by the offering documents.
