How was it financed, and what did it cost to sell?
Needham Bank financed the building as part of a $41.5 million multi-part facility announced in August 2022. Leveraged means the Trust holds mortgage debt against the property, so investors take on the loan's terms and refinancing risk along with their beneficial interest in the real estate.

Who's behind 1536-1542 Tremont Street?

Common questions
- What happened to 1536-1542 Tremont Street?
- 1536-1542 Tremont Street is a Historical offering. The last Form D, filed Oct 19, 2022, reports the offering fully sold.
- 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 offering documents 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.
