NexPoint announced on June 20, 2023 that the Trust had indirectly acquired four Central Florida small-bay properties spanning 13 buildings: Presidents Plaza, Brandywine Business Center and Corporex Plaza in Tampa, plus Orlando International Business Center in Orlando. 1 Small-bay flex means a building carved into modest suites rented to many local businesses rather than one large user. Basis Industrial had bought the three Tampa centers weeks earlier, in April 2023.

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?

It was offered under Rule 506(c), which permits public advertising but requires the sponsor to verify that every buyer is an accredited investor.

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 NexPoint Small Bay I?
- NexPoint Small Bay I is a Historical offering. The last Form D, filed Jun 26, 2024, reports the offering fully sold.
- What does "small bay" industrial mean here?
- Small-bay or flex industrial buildings are divided into relatively small suites — typically warehouse space with a bit of office and its own roll-up door — leased to local contractors, distributors, and service businesses. The Trust's four Central Florida properties comprise 13 buildings totaling 419,946 square feet, as announced by NexPoint on June 20, 2023.
- Who are the tenants?
- No named tenant roster for these properties appears in any public source located as of September 1, 2026. The buildings are multi-tenant, so income depends on many small leases rolling at different times rather than one long-term corporate lease. Real Estate Transition Solutions reports average occupancy of 93.2% and about two years of average remaining lease term on its marketplace page for the Trust.
- Is the Trust leveraged, and who is the lender?
- Public filings do not say. Form D does not require disclosure of property-level debt, and no sponsor release or trade report located identifies a lender or loan terms for this Trust. Leverage, loan maturity, and any lender-imposed reserves would be described in the offering documents issued to investors at the time of the offering.
- Does this Trust offer a 721/UPREIT exit?
- The record shows no REIT conversion feature. A 721/UPREIT exit is a structure in which investors contribute their real estate interest to an operating partnership in exchange for partnership units in a REIT, deferring tax again; nothing in this Trust's filing data indicates that path.
