How is it financed, and what did it cost to sell?
Leveraged means mortgage debt sits ahead of investor equity: the lender is paid first and must be satisfied on any sale or refinancing. An interest-only loan pays down no principal while it runs, so the full balance stands at maturity and must be repaid, refinanced, or covered by a sale.

Who's behind The Summit at Coates Run?
Baker 1031, a marketplace presenting figures it attributes to the sponsor, identifies Baker Tilly as sponsor of this Trust; the March 2, 2026 Form D names no sponsor, so that identification rests on marketplace material rather than the public filing. 3 On February 8, 2026, a sponsored announcement in AltsWire said Baker Tilly had formed a strategic relationship with Blue Vista Capital Management and PeakMade Real Estate to expand its Delaware Statutory Trust platform across student housing and residential assets.

What does the SEC record show?
Rule 506(c) lets an offering be advertised publicly, but the issuer must affirmatively verify each buyer's accredited-investor status rather than accept self-certification. 4 The notice stands unamended, and Baker 1031's offering page still showed the listing under review when it was updated June 27, 2026. 3

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
- Is The Summit at Coates Run an active offering?
- The Summit at Coates Run is an Active offering: its latest Form D was filed Mar 2, 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.
- Does The Summit at Coates Run have a 721 UPREIT exit?
- The record lists a possible 721 exit for The Summit at Coates Run. It is an option, not a completed transaction; the offering documents set whether and when it can happen. In a 721 exchange, or UPREIT, the DST’s property is contributed to a REIT’s operating partnership and investors receive operating-partnership units instead of cash.
- How a DST-to-721 UPREIT exit works
- Is the property in Athens, Georgia or Athens, Ohio?
- Athens, Ohio. The community sits on Richland Avenue roughly a mile from Ohio University, and the Athens County Auditor's sales report ties the Trust's recorded purchase to that address. Nothing in the public record connects this Trust to Athens, Georgia. It is also a separate issuer from the similarly named Athens Student Housing DST, CIK 1884988.
- What did the Trust pay for the property, and is that confirmed?
- The Athens County Auditor's valid sales report for February 15–21, 2026 records 363 Richland Avenue transferring to BT Athens Student Housing DST for $62,500,000 on February 18, 2026, with BVSHSSF Athens LLC as the seller. That is a county transfer record; the underlying deed instrument was not reviewed. The purchase price is a different figure from the total capitalization, equity, and debt amounts shown in the rows on this page.
- Who is the tenant, and who runs the property?
- There is no single corporate tenant. The Summit at Coates Run is student housing, and the sponsor's offering material describes the units as primarily four-bedroom residences leased individually by the bedroom, so income comes from many student leases rather than one corporate lease. Research as of October 4, 2026 did not resolve which company holds the day-to-day property management agreement. The offering documents are where the manager and any affiliate relationships are set out.
- Can any investor participate, and what does it cost to get in?
- No. This is a Rule 506(c) offering, which permits public advertising but limits purchasers to accredited investors — those meeting SEC income or net-worth tests — whose status the issuer must affirmatively verify, typically through tax returns, brokerage statements, or a letter from a CPA or attorney.
- What has been reported about the property since the offering was filed?
- On September 3, 2026, the Athens County Independent reported that a Richland Avenue intersection closure created move-in access problems and pushed additional traffic through the community's entryway; that is an access disruption, not damage to the buildings or an interruption of operations. The occupancy figure carried on this page comes from the sponsor's offering material and describes the property at the time of the offering, with no measurement date.
