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.

Common questions
- Is Reliant/Midgard Athens DST I (RMAT) an active offering?
- Reliant/Midgard Athens DST I (RMAT) is an Active offering: its latest Form D was filed Jun 9, 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.
- Where exactly is the property, and what is it?
- The Trust's offering documents identify two contiguous parcels at 1411 Lindsay Lane S., Athens, Alabama 35613, improved with five single-story self-storage buildings holding 459 storage units and 60,510 net rentable square feet on approximately 9.55 acres, with the improvements completed in May 2021. The same memorandum reported the property approximately 90.7% leased as of May 18, 2026 — a dated snapshot, not a current reading. Midgard Self-Storage, Reliant's own property-management company, operates the facility.
- How did the Trust come to own the property?
- Sponsor affiliate Midgard Self Storage Athens AL Two, LLC purchased the real estate from an unaffiliated third party for $6,000,000 on August 13, 2021. On June 5, 2026, that affiliate contributed the property to Reliant/Midgard Self Storage Holdings I, LLC, which immediately contributed it to the Trust; the memorandum identifies the Trust as the property owner. The contribution carried an imputed value of $7,007,696, which the memorandum does not describe as a cash purchase price paid by the Trust. As of the memorandum's June 15, 2026 date, the depositor still owned 100% of the Trust's beneficial interests.
- Who is the tenant, and what does the master lease say?
- There is no single corporate tenant behind the rent roll; a self-storage facility re-earns its occupancy continuously from individual renters. The Trust master-leased the property effective June 5, 2026 to Reliant/Midgard Self Storage MT I, LLC, a sponsor affiliate that is distinct from the facility's storage-unit renters. The master lease runs an initial ten-year term from that date and provides for up to five successive one-year renewals, subject to its conditions; beyond base rent, additional and supplemental rent depend on gross-revenue thresholds.
- Is there any debt on the property?
- The memorandum states that no debt financing encumbers the property. An unleveraged DST has no mortgage to refinance and no lender that can foreclose, but it also supplies no replacement debt to a 1031 exchanger who needs to match mortgage liability carried on the property they sold. That mismatch is a question for your own tax adviser before identification.
- What is the minimum investment, and who can buy?
- The Form D on file reports a $50,000 minimum investment in Class 1 beneficial interests, offered under Rule 506(c). Under 506(c), a sponsor may advertise an offering publicly but must take reasonable steps to verify that each purchaser is an accredited investor under the SEC's income or net-worth tests — self-certification alone is not enough. ARKap Markets LLC is named as the dealer.
