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.
DST interests are illiquid private securities. You may lose some or all of your investment. Distributions, tax treatment, and exit timing are not guaranteed. Review the current Private Placement Memorandum before investing.
Common questions
What happened to 1536-1542 Tremont Street?
Top1031 lists 1536-1542 Tremont Street as historical. It is no longer raising money.
Where does Top1031 get the data for 1536-1542 Tremont Street?
Top1031 builds this record from the sponsor’s own SEC filings and cited sponsor disclosures. Filings can lag what is happening now. A Form D filing does not mean the SEC approved, endorsed, or verified the offering.
Can I still invest in this Trust?
No. The offering is closed to new investors. Its only SEC filing is a Form D dated October 19, 2022, and no later issuer filing appears on the record. A closed Trust like this one is mainly useful as a comparable when you are sizing up a DST that is currently raising.
What exactly does the Trust own?
One mixed-use building at 1536-1542 Tremont Street in the Mission Hill/Roxbury neighborhood of Boston, containing 8 units — 6 residential and 2 commercial. A quitclaim deed recorded in Suffolk County on October 7, 2022 conveyed the property from Groma NAV REIT NB, LLC to Groma CCP WMI DST, with Groma Advisor, LLC acting as trustee.
Who pays rent to the Trust?
Under a master lease structure, the Trust leases the whole property to Groma CCP WMI Master Tenant, LLC, a sponsor affiliate. The master tenant deals with residents and commercial occupants and pays rent to the Trust, which insulates the Trust from day-to-day operations. Audited Groma NAV REIT financial statements date that master lease to October 6, 2022 with an expiration of March 31, 2032, and name Groma Property Management, LLC as property manager. Individual end-tenants are not identified in public records.
Is there debt on the property?
Yes — the Trust is leveraged. Groma announced in August 2022 that Needham Bank was financing a group of its Boston multifamily investments, including 1536-1542 Tremont Street, through a $41.5 million multi-part facility. The loan amount, rate, and maturity specific to this building are not disclosed in the public record; a prospective buyer of a secondary interest would look to the PPM (the private placement memorandum, the offering's full disclosure document) and loan documents.
Could this Trust roll into a REIT?
The record shows no 721/UPREIT exit — the option to exchange DST interests for operating-partnership units in a REIT rather than receiving sale proceeds. Nothing in the filings indicates that path for this Trust.
Has the property been sold or reported an outcome?
No sale or other outcome has been reported. The Trust took title in October 2022, and a current MLS listing published in August 2026 by LandVest Christie's shows a one-bedroom unit at the address offered for rent by Groma Realty, LLC — evidence of ongoing leasing activity, though not of building-wide occupancy or of any disposition.
